Jailhouse Rock - Elvis Presley

Tabs and lyrics
Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
This is at least 80% accurate, but I'm not totally sure about the solo. In the
solo, the part in the second bar where you play a 9th fret and 13th fret note,
the 13th fret note is actually an 11th fret note bent up to the 13th. If that
makes sense?
