Notes:
The verses I had originally tabbed as -
|------|
|6--4-4|
|----6-|
|------| x8
|------|
|5--3-3|
|----5-|
|------| x4
|------|
|6--4-4|
|----6-|
|------| x4
- but I realized there was a slide from what had to be 11 on the A string to 0, so I
it... you can use the original verse tabs if it's easier for you, but I personally find it
to jump from that last 4 all the way to the 11/0 slide. Whatever works for you.
Enjoy!
