The Letter

[oldrocker]

Anyone have anything for Joe Cocker's version of "The Letter"?

I have most of the chords, but there's some nice stuff that I can't quite get.

Tabs or transcriptions would be great.

Consider each note a measure in the verse and chorus

Sorry I don't normally tab. Hope this helps.

Thanks Z:

I already had the chords and main riff - I was trying to get some of the connecting parts of Carl Radle's line from the Mad Dogs and Englishmen live version.

Ooh, ooh, one of my ex girl friends dated Alex Chilton and I liked him alot, we stayed up late one night back in the late 80's "playing canasta", don't you know". and he taught me the tune. I'll have to look through my stuff, but I know that I tabbed it out. I'll subscribe to this thread and get it to you in the next day or so. Not Cocker, but if you can't fake it from there....

I play the Boxtops version with a rock band. I could post a tab for that one if you want.
