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!
