Nowhere Man

Better solo,

For the following we give thanks to Alex Northrup
Solo: This is played on a normally tuned guitar, NO CAPO. You'll be
surprised how easy this is! The fingerings are mostly based on
simple chord shapes (E and A). When the "chorded" fingerings come
up, don't strike all strings at once; use a downstroke that allows
each string tosound on its own for an instant. This will give you
that "scratchy" sound--check out the record to hear what I
obviously can't put into words. Note the natural harmonic at the
5th fret at the end.

Also, if you play this live (in front of an audience) the first 2 lines have no chords and are accopallo (sp?) and you start out with Em. The guy I play with told me , "Listen to the recording" because I was starting out with the wrong chord. (D)
