Halo by Texas ------------- Tabbed by Frederic Maquet Hello! This is quite a hard song to play, from the Texas "White on Blonde" album...I've put the easy way of playing it at the bottom, if you can't be asked playing it the hard way...it sounds pretty good too. For the Gmaj7, you'll need to use your thumb (i.e: have big hands)...if you can't reach the E bass string... just forget the bass! Enjoy....email corrections/questions/etc... to Frederic Maquet f.maquet@ic.ac.uk
