Author/Artist: Stray Cats Title: Stray Cat Strut Transcribed by: Jimmy Cafarella April 5,2003 Email: jcafarella@hotmail.com Before you start ,put the guitar down, and just listen to song and read along. Tabs always make way more sense that way. Especially on a song like this. Keep in mind that some of the sections in my tab aren't 100% accurate as far as strum pattern and such due to Brian Setzer(guitar god) playing in a loose jazzy fashion. But at any rate you should end up with your fingers in the right place and get a feel for the chords.Ok let's go: b=bend up r=release bend ~=vibrato /=slide up \=slide down *=trill tr=temelo pick p.m.------|=palm mute x=muffled string or note h=hammer on p=pull off Song starts with just bass and drums.
