I never thought that anyone would be looking for this song, but I tabbed it out anyways because the Doobie Bros are great. It's kind of rough, but... http://liveukulele.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/china-grove.pdf

Go see them live if you can. They put on a great show when I went to see them.

Ya thx and all, but i'v seen this before. The problem is that this tab is in low-g ,and well i dont have that. Thx but i need the song in high-G =/ sry.

I don't have my uke with me right now, but it looks like besides two notes in the solo, whether you use a high-G or a low-G shouldn't matter. Looks like a good tab, and a nice job with the solo.

My tab was for high-G (I don't even own a low-G).

You don't need the low G. Except for a few of the filler notes inbetween sections (which you can just chunk in time) that are on the G string this tab should be all you need if you plan to stick to the original key of E. Though the way Brad has it tabbed is probably more true to the overall tonal center (447X) I prefer playing the full chords like UkuleleJJ = 4447, 2225 etc.

Brad does fantastic work on his tabs and this is just another example.
