Rocky Mountain Way


A classic by the great Joe Walsh. Tabbed by: BASSteve Tuning: EADG Time signature: 4/4 r = rest (listen for duration) / = slide (low to high) \ = slide (high to low) ()= note inside parenthesis not plucked or hammered on * My tabs are meant to be read in conjunction with listening to the song. In other words, there are no specific notations to account for note / rest duration. However, you will find that I’ve made an attempt to strategically space the notes and rests within their respective measures in order to represent the appropriate durations.
