Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Lots of tabs out there but still too many errors so decided to make one final correct version. Listen to the
bass notes and you will see that this one is very accurate. Hope it helps all of you!
Can be played in standard tuning. Slap fingers on strings to make a percussive beat.
