"Texas" by Big Black
from Bulldozer EP
Tabbed by Mr. Cancelled (dopasaurusrex@gmail.com)
Standard Tuning (e,B,G,D,A,E)
The thing about this song is that both guitars are playing the same thing,
but in different octaves at different times, which makes this very confusing
to tab out. I'll try my best to make it simple. I'm going to tab out Steve's
guitar first, then Santiago's.

During the verse, Steve messes around with an open E, then plays nothing when
he starts singing.
