A Man, A City (Pictures of a City) (Tab)

'A Man, A City (Pictures of a City)' - by King Crimson           

Here's my transcription of 'A Man, A City' or 'Pictures of a City'. The
songs are much alike, only different arrangements. 'Pictures ...' has some
different guitar parts/overdubs which i haven't written down here. Some of 
the notes in the transcription are actually played by the sax, but what 
the hell, you'll figure it out...;).  And yes, it's not accurate in some 
places, but after a few hours transcribing i'd had enough, so...;)
