WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Allman Brothers - High Cost Of Low Living Tabs | Ver. 1
This tab is currently 95% created by Terry and 5% by myself.
I have basically edited and revised this version of the tab.
You can expect more of my updates to this tab including leads
and both guitars some time in February. I hope you enjoy our tab.
