Chords, Guitar Tablature & Lyrics
____________________________________________________________________________________

I think that there are two electric guitars, one on slide, in this one. I'm going to show you the chords and a tip or two - you can take it from there. This song is also available on CD - 2 CD set called 'Best of Southern Rock.' Be sure to visit my tab page in order to understand how I write tablature on the web.

TIPS

All of the Song

The chord symbols do not pertain to any beats.

E(lick)

Whenever you see "E(lick)" play the following:

E(lick)

1 -|| ------------------------------|--
2 -|| ------------------------------|--
3 -|| ------------------------------|--
4 -|| ----2---2---2-------2-------|--
5 -|| ----2---2---2--2h4---------|--
6 -|| ----0---0---0----------------|--

It is easier to play if you use your first finger to hold down the notes and your third finger during the hammer (2h4).

I hope you enjoyed playing this one.

Remember, that by learning this song, you are helping to preserve the music of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils!
