Chet Atkins : Mr Sandman http://www.guitartabsexplorer.com/ Mr. Sandman by Pat Ballard This transcription is based on Chet Atkins¹ arrangement as heard on: Chet Atkins‐ Guitar Legend‐ The RCA Years. I have included the section in ³A² that he starts with and the section in ³D² that he ends with, leaving out the ³C² section that he plays with piano accompaniment. I am sure there are notes missing, but listen to the recording and you can fill in. This is fun to play and a real crowd pleaser with the instantly recognized intro riff. Thanks Chet.
