Alabama - 5 O'clock 500 lead guitar tab
Alabama - 5 O'Clock 500 (with lead)
By axehappy - axehappy@
On the lead solos, it sounds as though there are either 2 guitars,
or the guitarist is using a harmonizer pedal.
I couldn't work out which, so I just tabbed the lead part using the
lowest notes.
A = x02220 C = x32010
D = xx0232 G = 320003
D/Db = x40232 D/B = x20232
D/A = x00232
