This is the only transcription for the classic Mexican
tune, "Tequila", on the net.
I have searched for hours trying to find it without any
luck. So here is my tab for it.
Rhythm Guitar plays in the background continuously until
the bridge, where it stops. The strumming pattern will
take some time to learn. The Lead Guitar has some quick
and tricky parts which may need practice.
