Rat Bat Blue
(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
From "Who Do We Think We Are", 1973
Tablature explanation :
/ - slide in
- slide out
h - hammer on
p - pull of
X - mute

Practically, all the verses are played the same, but I wrote all of them,
because of timing with the lyrics. I tried to present the rhythm parts,
but you still have to figure out the rhythm by listening to the song.
