               OH, THE BOSS IS COMING! - Arkells
                        From the album - Jackson Square
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The timing and structure are not 100% accurate, this is an outline, you need
to listen to where the parts go and proper timing.  Some parts have more notes
that notated, listen for 1/8's notes and such.

The previous tab on here was pretty close but I thought it could be improved.
Here is my take on it, I hope it helps.  

The song is pretty straight forward.  You use the alternate verse part for the
first 1/2. You should be able to hear where he changes.  The always hit on the
same note, so listen for it.  He uses a different ending with the main riff
after the first chorus, listen for the change.  I notated the main riff before
it just so you can see it a little more clearly.  The song closes on an E but
I think it is just guitar and drums on the last hit.
