The Bootleg Series, Vol. 12 - The Cutting Edge
Couldn't find these tabs online anywhere, so tried to figure them out.
Hope they're right! Played this tuned down 1 half step, and it sounds right.
So really G#7, C#7, and F#.
This is originally played on piano (listen to youtube video), but you can
make it work on guitar. Harmonica solo follows the same chord progression.
