Subject: TAB: STRAIGHT TIME by Bruce Springsteen

STRAIGHT TIME
Bruce Springsteen
(from the album "The Ghost of Tom Joad")

Notes:  The song has a fingerpicking pattern that's a little different, but
this pattern also varies at times.  Listen to the song to pick up on the
nuances, but this should serve as a good roadmap.  Springsteen tunes the
6th string to a D.  Let the notes ring throughout.
