Song: Care of Cell 44
Artist: The Zombies
Composer: Rod Argent
Album: Odessey & oracle
Tabbed by DJ ('DiddyD' on ultimateGuitar.com)
14 Aug 2012
This transcription is intended to be played fingerstyle, rather
than strummed, as there are a lot of partial chords in the breaks
and bridge where only half the strings are played.
See at the bottom of the tab for the full riffs.
If you would rather play more complete chords to strum the song,
I've also included an additional chord legend with even more
options, right at the bottom of the page.
Please IGNORE THE AUTOMATIC POP-UP CHORD BOXES and use the typed
shapes suggested in the chord legends below:

Additional chord legend, if you prefer to strum the chords:
N.B.
Some of the G chords will still require the bass note on
6th string to be emphasised first, then skip the 5th string
and strum the top four strings to complete the chord.
