Tablature blue jean blues - ZZ Top

          



 "Blue Jean Blues"

  by ZZ TOP

  

  OK, here we have a ten-bar blues in Bminor. The song is written for

  two guitars. (play it very slowly, the song takes almost

  four minutes to get through about 40 bars of music).

  

  Here is the rhythm guitar:

  -2---------0-|                                     |-2----------|

  ---------3---|                                     |------------|

  

  

  As for the lead guitar, it is played almost entirely on the B pentatonic

  minor scale at the seventh fret. Since the song is so slow, most people

  should be able to figure it out from the recording.

  

  I guess that should do it.
