I'm still working on this one:

|---b2(2.5)-0-----0-b2(2.5)-0------|
|-2-----------2---------------2----|

You may not be able to play all these parts by yourself
Fogerty had multiple guitars/tracks doing them.

Tab notes:

--8b(9)-- play fret eight, bend the string (at fret eight) to reach the
pitch of fret nine
--b(9)8-- play fret eight already bent to the pitch of fret nine,
releasing until it reaches the normal pitch of fret eight
-8b(8.5)- play fret eight, bend the string (at fret eight) to reach the
pitch a half note higher than the normal pitch of fret eight
---15\--- play fret 15, slide down (the ending fret of the slide is
undefined, judge by ear)
