A pair of 45s made me open my eyes

'Cause that long cool woman had it all

Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
I haven't seen a good tab on this song yet so I wrote this up. It's all legit.
Somehow, in a few places* the same note will be played, but one will sound more "twangy"
than the other. I really don't know how this is done. (Maybe there is more than one
guitar, but I doubt it).
