+Minnesota Tab
+I just tried to edit the existing tab, which was close to correct
+but has a few problems.  The biggest thing is that it was missing
+the Am during the chorus part, and just had a C.  You can hear he
+does a walkdown on the A string from C to Am.
+The D* means play a normal D but hammer on and off on the G string
+a couple of times.  You also dont have to... I think it was labelled
+a Dsus in the other tab but I don't think that's correct.
+Also I find the C sounds good if you play C9 - which makes for
+an easier transition too.
+C9 = 3

+Enjoy.
