What Might Have Been  Little Texas

 
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| This is the first song that I've ever tabbed out. Its pretty close to the original |
| and the picking pattern and timing are not that hard to figure out. It's a great |
| song and I couldn't find a decent version of it tabbed so I decided to do it myself. |
| If you see anythijng that needs to be corrected please feel free to do so. Have fun! |
