Mighty Quinn - Manfred Mann
Tuning: B, Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Song: Mighty Quinn (1968 version)
Artist: Manfred Mann
Composer: Bob Dylan
Album: Mighty Garvey!
Tabbed by DJ 1st July 2015
On the original 1968 single the guitar is tuned
down a semi-tone, (still played in C, as in the tab)
but after de-tuning the song will then sound
in the Key of B.

PLEASE NOTE:
In the later live versions by
Manfred Mann's Earth Band they play it in C,
(so no detuning required to play along with
that version) but the arrangement is quite
different to the original record.
Chords are named as if still in standard tuning:
C = x35553 F/A = x03211 F = 133211
G/B = x20033 G = 320033
Emphasise the bass note of each chord. Chords in
brackets are an option as accompaniment, they're
not actually played on the recording and are only
suggested by the melody.
