And down goes another Cats tab folks. Let me know what you think.
I'll try to check my work to hopefully improve the tab. I'll
be spending some time trying to learn this so I don't know 
when the next tab will be. But if nobody beats me to it, it will
be Machine Gun Blues by Social Distortion. Thanks for all those who
have rated my tab. Have fun!!
