Pragmatic Draw Bend

I have been practicing draw bending for a little while now, and experiencing a lot of frustration.  I learned to make all of the draw bends, but controling them has been a real issue.  Recently, I started fooling with the 'Beatles' song 'And, I love her'.  The tab that I used went up for the phrase, 'And, I love her'.  It sounded very wrong to me.  So, I trasnscribed it to the lower register.  What I found was that I needed a full-step, 3 hole, draw bend to play the phrase. 

I began to work on 'playing the bend muscially'.  I found that my frustration began to evaporate.  For me, putting the technique into a proper musical context made the practice more meaningful, and, my learning improved.  I don't know if this would be true for everyone, but it sure helped me. 

Here is the tab for the song, with my transcription:

-4  5    -5     -7   -6   7

I   give her    all my Love

-4        5     -5   -7   -6

That's  all    I     do - oo

-4      5  -5    -7    -6    7

And    if  you  saw  my  love

7       -6     -5     5     -4

You'd  lover her   too - oo

-3"   3   -3"    5   (lower register with draw bend)

-6    6    -6    8  (upper register)

And   I   love her

Hope it helps someone else,

Bill
