Hit The Road, Jack
Ulli Boegershausen
Fingerstyle Guitar
Note: It seems like he always mutes the bass a littlebit
(refrain), but i think you can ignore that.
This was a fucking hard piece of work for me and still
its not perfect, but good enough to share it with you
guys! If you have a suggestion of a fingerstyle vid thats
not tabbed out , then let me know and
maybe ill do it :)
