The melody of Sweet Freedom by Michael McDonald runs 267 notes across 47 bars, 2:40 long in Bb at 108 beats per minute. The tab sits low on the neck, mostly under the fourth fret, one note at a time — no chords to barre and no strumming pattern to keep up with. A piano backing track plays the chords and bass underneath, so the line you are learning sounds like the record even at half speed.
