			   MULE SKINNER BLUES - Jerry Reed
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Alex Miller

Tuning: Standard

Seeing as nobody's tabbed this amazing version of this song I have tried my best to get 
bits I can understand down.

Intro: (b means slight quarter bend)

e|-------------|--------------------|---------------|----------------------|
B|-------------|--------------------|---------------|----------------------|
G|-------------|--------------------|----------5b-2-|-------------------5b2|
D|-------------|--------------------|----0h2h5------|--------------0h2h5---|
A|--0--0--0--0-|-0--0--0--------5-3b|-0-------------|------5-3b--0---------|
E|--5--5--5--5-|-5--5--5--0h3h5-----|---------------|0h3h5-----------------|

  Let Ring..............

After this it gets near impossible to understand as there are two guitars and Jerry Reed 
Chet Atkins have very complex styles of playing.


e|--------------------------|
B|-----------7---7---7---7--| Repeat this Dmajor Chord Pattern Twice
G|-----------7---7---7---7--|
D|-----------7---7---7---7--|
A|--0-2-3--5-------5--------|

This is roughly the chord progression that continues throughout the song.

Hope you enjoy playing it and please feel free to add to this tab.
