these two measure actually call for some weird bending you might want
to experiment with.

You are now back to the beginning themes. Play them for the 3rd verse and
then the final solo comes in with LOTS of muted stuff.

More ZZ Top tabs to come... (any preferences?, anybody?)

well, not sure bout the rest of the song, but that first verse is clearly about having the Queen Mother of all hangovers. I've been there. and, btw, remote dwarf, i have actually gotten "leid" in Hawaii

the greatest sunglasses I have ever had I purchased at a gas station for a few dollars. this song in particular shows off the awesome blues influence evident in ZZTop.
