-===== Night Of The Mules =====
-tabbed by Rosa
-The recording is about a half step down from this. The mutes sound best if done with your fretting hand,
-but you can palm mute if you can make it sound ok. Also, it's hard to tell whether or not, where I've
-tabbed Cadd5 and Am7, you should actually just keep muting all the strings except the high e string.
-The variations in the muting pattern and the random F chord in the outro make me think that John hadn't
-quite figured out how he wanted to play this when he recorded it, so feel free to do what's easiest for you.
-Riff:
-    C        mute     Cadd5            Am       mute     Am7
