This is the corrected version I am sending you now. Could you please use this one instead of the one I sent yesterday. If the OLGA can't use it, could you please send it to some other site that can? If you do, could you please send me an e-mail about where it is, and how I can get to it? If there are any problems, please e-mail me. Thankyou. - Stuart Watson - lrw@virginia.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FROM: Stuart Watson This is the tab of Octopus's Garden by the Beatles. It appeared on their 1969 album Abbey Road, and was sung by Ringo.
