STP - "Huckleberry Crumble"
From "Stone Temple Pilots" Album (2010)
Standard tuning
tabbed by jjhand
I agree with some of the blogs mentioning that this song is a lot like
Aerosmith's musical style. Its still a good song and has nice lead solos.
Please rate/comment. I don't have all the lyrics, but will update once
they are available.
