----------------------------------------------------------------------------
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---|

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.
