This is a song by a not so well known band called The Slip. I highly
suggest getting one of their CD's if you haven't done so already. For those
of you who do know the band, you have probably been waiting for someone to
tab this song. It is an awesome fingerpickin' tune called "Beetle to the
Badlands," and it is off of the album "Angels come on time." I did my best
for accuracy, but it is a tricky song and I'm sure there are a few notes I
missed. I made a feeble attempt at using spaces for timing. This is just
the intro/verse, but the chorus isn't that hard. I'll tab it when I sit
down to figure it out.

This then repeats several times, possibly with minor variations. It looks a
hell of a lot easier than it is. If you have any questions about the
fingering or you want me to tab something else, just let me know.
