This is a classic from Jimi Hendrix called Little Wing.
It's just the beginning part, but thats probably the only
part people remember it by. On the album there is no
background he just plays this by himself with a clean sound.
It takes some patience to learn it and after you learn it
you need to put some feel into it. The X's stand for a
string mute. Just mute the strings and strum all of them.
The > stands for a finger slide either up or down the string,
depending on what side of the note it is on. The ^ stands
for a hammer-on or a pulloff, again, depending on what note
it is going to. This is a pretty accurate transcription.

what you think. Any criticism is welcome, but hey, go easy,
I'm only 15 years old and bad criticism could have an effect
on me later in life, or so they say. Anyway, hope you enjoy,
look forward to hearing from you.
