Jim Croce - Bad, Bad Leroy Brown

After searching for this tab myself before, I found that 1 person had it down pretty well, but the only flaw was that he failed to mention that whenever he plays the G, and A7 chords, he does a shuffle. So, you have to play barre chords. When he plays the G, you switch your fingers down a string to a C barre chord in a shuffle rhythm, and when he plays the A7, you switch your fingers down to a D barre chord in a shuffle rhythm. So it will be G G C C G G C C, etc. Verse 1 Well, thog. Outro Ye (guitartabs.cc)

So I was looking for a tab for this song and surprisingly most of them were pretty bad. Even the one that was "Unregistered" was close, but still not the way how Jim Croce played it. So after studying old Jim Croce performances, I got it down perfect. The only thing that people may still have trouble with this song is the beat and the hammer-ons and pull-offs while using the barre chords. But if you either listen to the song or watch Jim Croce perform it on youtube, then it should be c (guitartabs.cc)
