Stages by Zz Top +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation | | of the song.

I didn’t put the lyrics in order with the chords because it's already taken me a number of hours to compose this. Listen to the timing (tempo - 152) and you’ll figure it out. I tried to make this as easy as possible. The other tabs I've seen are confusing. These chords are 100% correct. If you want the solos buy the book!!!
