                             Pinch Me - Barenaked Ladies
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:Eric Gonzalez
Email:emg015@bucknell.edu

Tuning: Standard

So pretty much all of the Pinch Me tabs (intros) I have seen are pretty far 
off, so after searching numerous places, this is the collaboration I have made.
I think its pretty close. Play it kinda slow, timing is the hardest part. Listen
to the song. Theres a lot of potential improv to be done between the notes, as
you will hear in the actual song/live performances.
