Great little progression, no mando here at work but here is intro from memory:
3 - 3 - 3 - 2 - 1 - 3
3 - 2 - 1 - 0 - 0 - 2
0 - 0 - x - 0 - 3 - 0
5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 5 - 0
or
Gsus/C - G/B - Gm/Bb - D - F - G
I cross pick this, and there are a couple of essential ornaments I left out for clarity. Of course, this could be #### too. Now if only I could sing like Winwood...

Great tune. #One of my favorite mando solos of all time is the one that Joe Craven did on this tune. #It's on a Rob Ickes CD. #I love to jam on the tune.

Hey Wando, do you know the name of that Cd?
The Ickes' CD is named "Slide City" -- 1999. #Tim O'Brien is on it, too.

Hey thanks, I'll look for that one. I've was trying to get "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" down when I figured this one out. LSOHHB seems like it'd be a great place for mando; just not in my hands!

hey ya'll, try dear mr. fantasy sometime, pretty cool.:)
Funny, I played that two weekends ago at a festival and liked the way it fit on mandolin.

Can't Find My Way Home is one I perform out regularly. Bigger issue for me, is that I have to play it out of F (due to the singer).
I second the Tim O'Brien/Rob Ickes/Joe Craven cover of the tune from Ickes Slide City album. The singing is dead on (as is any of the rock cover tunes that Tim O'Brien sings on), but that Joe Craven solo is pretty inspiring. Don't know how much I like the album overall, but it's worth getting just for that cut.
