17 MILES OF BOURBON - Wrinkle Neck Mules
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: A.J. Conner

Tuning: Standard
This is a nice bluegrass tune that changes things up a bit on the Mules' debut
album. It's fast-paced and really fun to play (especially if you know a good
banjo player). Still working on the guitar solo but it's a doozy. If you
can improvise some lead in 
G+G that'll do just fine until I get it figured out.
Sorry!
