Benton Harbor Blues - The Fiery Furnaces
 
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: The Valrus
Email: valrus@bluebottle.com
Tuning: Standard
Notes: Fantastic song, sounds great on solo guitar if you skip or just
don't stress about the bridge. And, of course, skip the weird bits
if you play the 7-minute version with the extra verse.
