Righteous, written and recorded by Eric Johnson, from his 1990 album Ah Via Musicom.
Transcribed in 4/4 time, but with a definite blues-shuffle feel.
Note: this is NOT the same as the Feb 1992 transcription by Guitar for the Practicing Musician. That version - which was used for measure demarcation and for verification of some of the faster solos - involves some rather unusual chord positions, and has some different style marks (e.g., bends or vibratos). This IS how I play it.
The only thing I ask in return for my hours of labor is that you let me know if you`re using the file. Write me at law2@husc.harvard.edu. Enjoy...
Key: This is typical tab, strings from high to low. T = play with thumb / = slide up = slide down ^ = bend ^q = quarter tone ^h = half tone ^F = full tone if letter is above the fret , note is bent THEN picked h = hammer p = pull-off g = grace note - written above note to be `graced` ~ = vibrato

That`s all folks. I just ask one thing in return: let me know if you use it. I put so much time into this I would hate for it to go to waste.
