Jimi Hendrix
Dolly dagger
By Stephen Mc Carthy
Standard tuning (EADGBe)
Trying to tab a Hendrix song was a much more frustrating task than I though!
I realise this tab isn't perfect but try to look at it as more of a rough
guide to the song as It was the best I could do for now and it is quite close.
By the way I found that learning part of these solos are a great idea if you want
to play like the god himself.
