WOMEN SEEM
JOHN COUGAR MELLENCAMP
Tabbed by Jim Bauer (jbauer601@hotmail.com)
NOTE: When I did this tab I didn't have time to figure
out the riff that follows under the rythm, nor the riff
after the verse tacet. I'll post it as soon as I can in
a corrected version, unless someone beats me to it, of
course. :)
