One of my all-time favorite songs by one of my all-time favorite artists is "Stormy" by Dennis Yost and the Classics IV. It's one of those songs I can just put on repeat and play all day long and never get tired of. Back in the days when you could find just about any guitar or bass tab you needed on HarmonyCentral.com I found the tab for this song and learned how to play it. Don't know if the tab is out there somewhere floating around on the web still so I am providing it here.
First here is the video from YouTube of me playing the song on guitar:
And here is the tab of the chords played above:

Going from the Em9 to the A13 I do a little bit of a slide up but I didn't include the slide up symbol. In other words I slide up from 4456 (Ab13) to 5567 (A13). Hopefully that makes sense. Also of note is that I played the little bass line runs between the GMajor7 and Aminor9 on the video but they are not included on the tab. Finally, the rhythm with which I played the chords during the verse is not tabbed out either because I just added a bit of my own flair to it. It's not what they play on the recording, just something I threw in there.
