"DAY BY DAY" BY THE HOOTERS FROM THE ALBUM NERVOUS NIGHT
I tried to include complete tab, but you'll have to listen to the
CD to get the timing, and come up with your own version of the
keyboard/mandolin intro. If you are not on the mailing list for
Satellite (the Hooters unofficial newsletter) and would like to be added, just drop me a line. Good luck!
Intro: Synth. arranged for guitar
