Hi Paco,
You'r collection of Jethro Tull guitar tabs,is very good,and
very welcom. Thank You.
I've search for "Hard times" tabs. Over a long period of time,
but never find any.It's one of my favorit Tull-songs, so i decided
to try myself.I carefully tuned my guitar with help of my wife's
(more than 100 year old) piano,and started to play along with
the CD.It's only my second attempt to tab. anything,
but this is what i came up with.
