   CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME    By Steve Winwood    From Blind Faith

The original recording uses a second overdubbed guitar track to fill
in  various  rhythms and riffs  thus  making  playing  CFMWH  solo a
daunting but not impossible task.

The basic picking pattern below forms the foundation for  everything
else.  Get the basic picking pattern down cold then  add in whatever
flourishes and riffs that you can squeeze in.

Play  with a pronounced  syncopation  in the  rhythm.  Emphasize the
first bass note in  each  measure,  picking  the second bass note of
each measure lightly, if at all.

h = hammer on,  p = pull off

Basic picking pattern:

Use the same syncopation throughout.
