Title: Stacy's Mom
Tabbed by: James Staley
Special thanks to DJSeebs, for tabbing a better solo then I could...I'm not good at
tabbing, let alone solos.
Standard Tuning: EADGBE
Ok, I'm not the greatest tabber in the world, so this may be off... But I think my intro
sounds better (I guess it's the verse too) on electric guitar.

you can distinguish)
