Song: Difficult to Cure
Ritchie Blackmore's version of Beethoven's 9th symphony.
Tabbed by: Hampus Lager
I had nothing to do a few weeks ago, so I sat down to listen to dad's old records.
I found a lot of Deep Purple records and started listen to them,
and then I hear this song, and though: "Wow! What a great song!"
So I listen to it over and over again, and I never got tired of it!
So, I sat down, and tried to play it. After a few weeks I knew how to play it,
so I tabbed it down, so YOU can learn how to play it!
Good luck!

That's it!
(I wanted to tab down "Eugene's trickbag", but there are already
so many versions of it, so I tabbed this down instead.)
