Dog Of Two Head 1973
Let me guess. You saw them last night and wanna learn this song.
Well as that is the most popular case, I will tab this as the modern line up play it live.
It is extremely similar to the '73 version however.
Francis: Standard Tuned Telecaster capo 5th fret
Rick: Standard Tuned Telecaster
Rhino: Standard Tuned Tanglewood Telecaster capo 5th fret
Andy: Standard Tuned Washburn Semi
I'll do a bit of everyone's part so that you get the idea...
