Halo by Texas
			-------------
				Tabbed by Frederic Maquet

Hello!  This is quite  a hard song to play, from the
 Texas "White on Blonde" album...I've put the easy way 
of playing it at the bottom, if you can't be asked
playing it the hard way...it sounds pretty good too.
For the Gmaj7, you'll need to use your thumb (i.e: have
 big hands)...if you can't reach the E bass string...
just forget the bass!

Enjoy....email corrections/questions/etc... to Frederic Maquet
