Good Timin' Man - Whitey Morgan and the 78's
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
There aren't many tabs for this band on here, and I figured I try one. This is my first attempt at
transcribing anything, so any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
P.S. I have Am in the chorus, but I don't think it's what is played, but it's the only thing I could get
to sound even remotely close.
