                             March 4 1831 - Balmorhea
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: scdavis01

Tuning: Standard

Guitar Part I: Rob loops this riff and experiments with/improvises on it as the song 
goes on - he often exchanges the note on the open B string for the note on the open high E string.

The notes in () are not completely necessary - they should be played less loudly than 
the others, but they are present to keep the continuous eighth note feel going.
