Beatles - Blackbird Ukulele Cover

EDIT: THE TAB IS NOW POSTED ON MY WEBSITE

Recently I had a request for a tab for Abe Lagrimas Jr's arrangement of the classic Beatles tune, Blackbird. I remember seeing a video a number of years back when Abe performed at the New York Uke fest. I believe he was playing a solid body ukulele and at that time the arrangement didn't seem to grab me. However, a more recent video posted on the Hawaiian Music Supply channel where Abe is playing his acoustic Ko'olau did in fact get my attention.

Not sure when I will get to it but I do plan to put a tab together based on my recorded version in this video which is basically my interpretation of Abe's arrangement. He plays with a much more disciplined, classical, style while I hack away with my thumb as usual.
