                              COUSIN MARY - FLUDD
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another of my favourite early 70's bands; this was from the 1972 Daffodil
records album ...On!, and is typical of Fludd's lighter, AM radio-friendly
stuff, although they could rock harder as well.Oldies stations still play
this; it is mostly picked on banjo, with the harmonica intro
Intro with harmonica(arranged for guitar here, since I don't
know how to play or transcribe harmonica!)

Cousin Mary was a lady who could really hold her own
A                         Bm
