== INTRODUCTORY NOTES ==
===================================================================
If you're not daunted by open tunings, this is a really fun and
simple tune to play. As always, Gurley throws in lots of variation
to his riffs, but I've tabbed out a VERY basic form of every
individual part. Check out the reference section at the bottom and
learn each of the different riffs that make up the song. I've
indicated the strummed or implied chord names above the appropriate
parts of the tab. I've also tabbed out the basics of the middle
solo (it's not perfect, but it gets the job done). Since most of
the solo is just based on the "D" pattern, you can strum all of the
strings on the guitar while playing the individual notes (to give
yourself accompaniment). Otherwise, I think just the basic "Riff 2"
pattern is being played beneath the solo, but it's hard to tell
because it's completely drowned out. That's about all the notes I
have on this tune.
===================================================================
== CHORD GUIDE ==
