TITLE: Misirlou
Artist: Dick Dale

You'll want to tremelo pick (really fast, but even) for the entire song.
With these accents:
 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
 ^     ^     ^

For the high E part I've tabbed a variation on the melody that may or
may not more accurately represent what Dick Dale plays.  Feel free to
play with it and mix things up.

And the ending is just an E major chord.
