Hey, this is the whole song "High Water Everywhere" By Joe Bonamassa off his new album,
& Me." I just wrote down the actual notes he's playing, there are some places where he
in some muted and open strings (like in the main riff), but this should be all right, if
have any changes, feel free to e-mail me at skynyrd128@gmail.com. Thanks, Enjoy.
Please don't pass this off as your own work, this took a lot of time and energy to make
it was right. Thanks.
