Album: Canned Wheat (1969) & Let's Go The CBC Years (2005)
Tabber: Nick Gray

Tuning: Standard (EADGBE)
A very cool repetitive riff along with Gary Peterson doing a "Moby Dick" style drum solo
impersonation from Led Zeppelin. Here's The Guess Who doing there own Moby Dick.
The Let's Go album version is much shorter (5:51) than the Canned Wheat version (11:16).
Enjoy !

John is nineteen and He doesn't see the matter...
Joshua puts on his mask and walks the road to Jericho...
Joseph tends the sheep in His coat of many colors...

And I still call Him my friend
The guitar solo starts at 2:40 the only part I could make out is this. Other than that
just mess around in C.
