I noticed that there was no good tab for this song. I love this song personally, and im 
not saying this tab is 100% correct, but i think its pretty damn close.
This song is very jazzy, very rockabilly. In saying that, the guitar is very free and 
rhythmic. I actually improvise the solo when I play it.
Its a great song, so muck around with it.
Any questions email me as fall.into.sleepxx@hotmail.com
