All Along The Watchtower

Afinação: E A D G B ETecla: CmCapotraste: Sem capotraste I am adding a little tab bit for the intro. This includes the basic rhythm of the chord progression and a simplified extract of the lead intro. If you play it like it's tabbed you'll look rather impressive, but it's really easy to play. Enjoy! Note that all the chords are to be played as bar chords, or even power chords (but that doesn't sound as good).
