Folsom Prison Blues by Reverend Horton Heat Band: Reverend Horton Heat Album: Holy Roller Tuning: Standard Alright kids, back with another tab. The Reverend definitely raises the bar in terms of difficulty. Jim Heath is an exceptional guitarists and it was quite a pain to tab this out. I definitely have my work cut out for me since there are a couple of other songs of his I plan on tabbing. But it was definitely worth it nonetheless. This is the 23rd track off of their 6th album. A great greatcover from one of the most influential artists in history. I'm about 85% sure on this tab. There are some walking bass notes in the solos that Jim finger picks that I couldn't really figure out yet. So, I just tabbed the main parts for us finger picking noobies. Strums not exact. Let's go!
