E|E|E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------||| ON THE LOOSE - Saga E|E|E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------||| Written by: M.Sadler/J.Crichton/I.Crichton/J.Gilmour/S.Negus Album: "Worlds Apart" (1981, Maze Records/Canada) Tabbed by: Anne Drury (zerofret) Date: February 20, 2006 **Note from transcriber: Obviously, there are several issues with this tab (see comments for this tab). I'd remove it altogether so as not to waste peoples' time with it, but I know that UG doesn't allow people to remove tabs. However, I'd strongly suggest people NOT use the tab, as there's very little about it that's right. Instead, have a look at this live video you a good look at correct fretboard positioning. - A.D.
