Bad Bad Leroy Brown - Jim Croce
00:00 / 00:00
Tabs and lyrics
Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
Alright, so the other tabs on here may be right, but if you're just
playing by yourself, they don't sound that good, so this is my version,
which sounds just like the piano part that's playing in the song.
Its a tab for use with improvising, so take it for what its worth,
and have fun. RickyWillems at gmail
