----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fast As You - Dwight Yoakam ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Country Bass E-mail: aaron.white8@education.nsw.gov.au Great song by one of country's greatest.

For any beginner bassists looking at this tab it takes a while before your fingers get used to the stretching from 3 to 6.
