Here it is, errors and all - my best shot. I have a tough time annotating the beats & bars so if anyone would care to step up and correct it, I would appreciate it. I also find, of course, that there are lots of different ways to do the 9th and 10th bars - i.e., the walkdown and walk up in F - but this is as close as I can get to what I think Lloyd is doing. I would love for someone who has played this before to provide some feedback so that the tab can be improved.
