Well, here is *part* of the tab to the Joker which everyone was asking for. This
is about 1/6 of the total tab, and it'll be a cold day in hell before I type it
all in. This should get you started though, although most of it is repeats...
More will follow when I have time to type it.


			The Joker - Steve Miller Band
		  Tabbed by Mike from Guitar School magazine (Nov 1991)

  Tempo is 80. There are Four(!) guitars on the track, 3 accoustic and
1 electric. The chorus is done with 3 accoustics at the same time. The
solos are played with a wa pedal, and sometimes a slide as well.
