Artist: Santana
Song: Evil Ways
Album: Best of Santana
Transcribed by jordanlockert@yahoo.com

I was surprised to find that no one had already figured this 
song out yet.  This is from the Best of Santana and I don't know 
if there is another version of this song. I say this because
I saw a Chord file that said the chords are Am, D, E, whereas
on my CD they are Gm, C, D (2 frets down)

Tablature explanation:
h - hammer on
p - pull off
^ - bend


Intro riff - also used later in song:
