------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hit Me With Your Best Shot by Pat Benatar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: HandT Email: HandT@mailbox.sc.edu No, it's not the most masculine song I could tab, but I picked it up by ear and decided make a tab on this. My first tab, by the way, so correct me on mistakes please. It took a ridiculous amount of time for me to get, so try it before rating.
