Monkey Trick - The Jesus Lizard
 
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: Jon
Tuning: Standard
This is easily one of the best songs ever. I'm not sure about all of these notes, Duane doesn't
exactly play guitar in a traditional manner. Also, some of them are sort of hidden in
mix. But for the most part this tab is accurate.
If a note looks like this (9) that means that it might be there and it might not, I can't
tell.
