This tab was created with the help of an Amiga computer and the sampling
software Audiomaster IV, under the menu effects/duration/pitch the
frequency and the pitch can be doubled, thus enabling the program to play
back the sample at half the speed but with the original pitch.

Subject: BadMoonRising.crd.alternate by Creedence Clearwater Revival
I found that the other file of CCR's Bad Moon Rising sounds diferent to the
song I have on cd. I found that it sounds ok if you capo it at the
second fret. But I also worked it out so you wouldn't need a capo. (I
also found that the lyrics weren't the same as what they sing, so here it
is with all corrections: )
