Some body did a cut and paste.Not saying who, but check the dates. I say string him up!
Thanks for your work, Beer For My Horses is such a great song.
In the chorus, where they raise their glasses, how do you like the sounds of an F chord at "whiskey", then a C chord at "men"?
yeah i think the F sounds good.
Nice tab, this song is awesome and so is the tab, nice job.
