Note: Use your baby finger alot especially with Buck Dharma's Style.

H = hammer on P = pull off Bu9to11 = means have note bent to 11 at start of play. Bu9to11to9 = means bend 9 to 11 and release back to 9. *** = triplet ^ = hold for ~1/4 O = Open E7/B = E seventh chord with a B root ( bass ) note.

The Last Days in May ( Play Bar chords Bm = 7th fret etc.)

Parched land on desert sand the sun was just a dot. And a little bit of

Water goes a long way 'cause it's hot. Three good buddies were laughing and

Smoking in the back of a rented Ford. They couldn't know they weren't

Going far. (7th fret BAR for all these chords)

Each one with the money in his pocket could go out and buy himself a brand new

Car. But they all held the money they had, the money they hoped would take

Them very far.

Song is in Key of D so Blues Runs in B work great. Matter of fact B runs Mixed with a little D work good together. I have good luck with B runs.

Note: Buck plays smoothly fast, so get the jist of the song as tabbed and Bend a few notes, hammer on a few and play it smoothly. It is not that easy To tab this song with feeling. I hope you listen and enjoy.

We used to practice Bm A G F#sus4 F# Bm A G A progressions while playing The Runs, Blues licks in B and D over it just to get the feel.
