GIMME BACK MY BULLETS
Tabbed by Dave

Play these licks with bass and midrange set to 0. Gives it a chicken pickin' style. Also palm

mute as many notes as possible.

NOTE: This is NOT how it's played on the recording, but this is my own tuned up version. It

sounds pretty close to the real thing. Except that in this tab LICK 2 and LICK 3 are more

complex than in the actual song. This was all done by ear, ENJOY! =)

Ripped By Olof

A more simple yet more "lynyrd-like" tab here, ripped from Dave´s original tab. played
with a nice distorsion and lots of palm muting. In the original recording there´s a lot
of small quick hammer-ons that fill out the gaps in this fast&lovely blues walk. Of
course it´s designed for at least two guitarist but that's beyond the scope of this
simple tab.

Enjoy!
