Back with another. This is the 5th track off of Nick 13's long
anticipated solo country album. Very upbeat and fun song to play.
Very simple format and very simple chord progression. The chord names
and frets are NOT relative to the capo. Reason is, for those who
don't have a capo, they can play the regular barre chords if they want.
I learned through the capo, which is why it's tabbed out this way.
Strums are not exact. Listen for the changes. LETS GO!!!
Key of Ab. CAPO ON THE FIRST FRET if you have one.
FRETS AND CHORD NAMES ARE NOT RELATIVE TO CAPO. FRETS ARE LISTED AS
