DIRTY LOVE - Thunder
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: FunkHammer

is primarily straight eighth-note patterns which are difficult to tab precisely, but
I've done my best to give an idea as to where the changes fall with regard to the lyrics.
Also, fretted notes tabbed within parentheses represent single muted notes -- i.e., (5)

string (noted with an x). This helps define the eighth-note rhythms. But as usual,
listening to the
