Ratt
Lay It Down

OK -- this is probably the best song any 80's hair band ever did.
I tabbed it out just because i like it.  No one will probably see it
but here it is.  "Who is RATT?!?!" Just an 80's hair band lost in 
the 
mix with all the others.

Tuning -- DROP D

p= pull off
h= hammer on
/= slide up
\= slide down

INTRO
