Song

Jimmies Chicken Shack - High

Transcribed by Steve P - general@subnetsystems.com

Ok, this song is definately in drop D, so tune accordingly. If you are not playing

it in drop D, then you are not playing 'High'. Heh`.

Listen for muting during certain parts and pay attention to the dynamics.

Since this song is only a few chords, dynamics is what it's all about.

If you want to add the high D sting, be my guest; it's the same fret throughout

the song as the rest of 'em.
