Album: Beat The Devil's Tattoo
Guitarists: Robert Levon Been & Peter Hayes
Tuning: Standard
Tabbed by: Pini-Glock

A great song on a great album, I tabbed the notes Robert plays on this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdNMF9sdpQ4 I couldn't tab the slide guitar (sorry), anyways I put these
notes in chords so it's easier for you to play!

A tip for playing during the verses:
Try to only hit the upper 3 strings, this way you get the bass even better. ;)

If you have suggestions or questions you can always leave a comment on my UG page! :)

Anyways enjoy this great song!

Cheers Nick!
