You Cant Hurry Love Tab

Band: Stray Cats
Song: You Can't Hurry Love
Album: Runaway Boys: A Retrospective '81-'92
 
Long time, no tab, kids. I've been taking this time to
actually LEARN the songs I've tabbed. I've had the tendency
to tab something out only to move on to the next song quickly
without actually nailing the parts cleanly first. So, now that
I'm ready (kind of), I'm back with another Cats tab. Another
brilliant cover of the classic Supreme's version. Pretty
simple format for a Stray Cats song. Strums are not exact.
Listen for the changes. Lets go!!!

That's it for that one. Sorry for all the parts. Just wanted to
make it as detailed as I could for the finger picking parts. Up
next.......ANOTHER Stray Cats tab. This time it's "My One Desire"
Have fun! Let me know what you think!
