Dead Man


Title: Dead Man Artist: Cross Canadian Ragweed Album: Mission California(2007) Ok here's my best attempt at this song. Its not perfect because Cody plays it a little different every time, but this is pretty close. For this song, when you strum, you can either play all the strings as tabbed, or you can mute the high e string; you can even mute both the high e and b strings if you like, it sounds fine. Keep your pinky and ring fingers on the 3rd fret of the high e and b strings respectively, only moving your index and middle to play the entire song (except during bridge).
