 Subject: TAB:  Hug You Squeeze You by Stevie Ray Vaughan 
  
  
 Hug You Squeeze You 
  
 by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 
 from the "Live at the El Mocambo" Video Recording 
  
 Transcribed by Geoff Millewich 
  
  
 As far as I know, Stevie Ray has not released this song on any of his 
 albums.  The intro riff is just as serious as the lyrics, and I have a 
 hard time keeping a straight face when I play it. It took me about ten 
 minutes to figure it out and a few hours to really get it down.  Use lots 
 of reverb and (as always with S.R.V.) tune down 1/2 step. 
  
  
 P.S. --  This is my first shot at writing tab, so bear with me. 
          I've been moochin' off you all for so long that 
          I figured I ought to make some contribution.
