Steeltown written by Big Country Cd Without The Aid Of A Safety Net any queries or corrections (I'm sure there's loads) e-mail me, tom, at :-toma29@hotmail.com This is an awesome live version of an already great album track about the decline of the industry in Western Europe, and how one man would swap anothers destiny for his own. God knows what key it's in I'm really a bad guitar player, I just love big country, anyway this is my attempt at tabbing it. Stuart Intro with chorus and delay (about 280ms?) Dunno what the hell Bruce is playing, but it rocks. This is not very accurate especially the last bit, but looking at the dvd it looks ok just can't work out the last bit.
