Possum Kingdom Toadies
Toadies - 'Possum Kingdom'
Standard Tuning
Tabbed by jjhand, with help from Twisted Tool's tab
I just wanted to clear up the other tab available so the chords
were accurate. This song has some interesting chord changes that
are hard to follow but I tried to give a general rhythm. Please
rate or comment! Thanks!
