Artist: The Doobie Brothers
Song: I Been Workin' On You
Album: Stampede
This song is a really catchy number, and I was just jammin' while listening to it when I
to figure out the song. I got the main riff of the song and the chorus stuff, but I
tab out the solo yet. The lack of Doobie tabs has encouraged me to try and tab stuff, so
more songs in the future. Anyways, Heres the intro riff, just play along with the
to get the gist of it:
|------------0-----0-------------0-----0-------------0-----0----|
|--------------3b5-----------------3b5-----------------3b5------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|-----5-4-2---------------5-4-2---------------5-4-2-------------|
|-x-x-3-2-0-----------x-x-3-2-0-----------x-x-3-2-0-------------|
|-------------------|
|-------------------|
|-------------------|
|-------------------|
|-----5-4--7-5-2----|
|-x-x-3-2--5-3-0----|
Now slide up from that last power chord up to the first one here during the chorus:

Hope this tab helps! Its not 100% accurate rhythm wise (I didnt tab every note) but if
look at what I've given you and play along to the song you'll pick up on the right way to
it in no time. Enjoy!
