E MajorE 022100 A augmentedA 002220 BB 224442
Notes:
E* means that the E MajorE is decorated by futzing it with an E minorEm (as you can
hear in the song). There is a lot of sliding in the song. Not
currently possessing a slide, or knowing how to tune the guitar to an
appropriately to slide to this song, I just make do by sometimes sliding
the A augmentedA up to 004440. It sounds pretty good for the chorus.
Apologies in advance for lyrical errors. By the way, does anyone out
there know "Murder, Tonight, in the Trailer Park?"

P.S. This group has brought me closer to a lot of cool music. Thought
it high time I started to return the favor. Thanks!
