Tabs
Artist: Cross Canadian Ragweed
Album: Mission California(2007)
Ok here's my best attempt at this song. Its not perfect because Cody plays it
a little different every time, but this is pretty close.
For this song, when you strum, you can either play all the strings as tabbed,
or you can mute the high e string; you can even mute both the high e and b
strings if you like, it sounds fine. Keep your pinky and ring fingers on the
3rd fret of the high e and b strings respectively, only moving your index
and middle to play the entire song (except during bridge).
