WHAT IT'S LIKE - EVERLAST CD-Whitey Ford Sings the Blues Tabbed by: Michael Ortiz Date Tabbed: 2/24/00 Standard Tuning: E, A, D, G, B, E These Tabs are 100% correct to me. Ever since 2/24/00 I have been learning this song in Kalamazoo, MI. I live in Colorado Springs, CO and I have been working on perfecting this song. It is now 2/23/00, over a work of labor has been put into this song, so trust me when I say that these Tabs are correct! Intro #1 (Play Intro #1 three times the play Intro #2 once & immediately play the first verse!)
