Less Than Jake - Nervous In The Alley

================================================================================================

Written by: Chris & Roger
Lyrics by: Vinnie
Bassist: Roger
Available on: "Hello Rockview"

There are no tabs for this anywhere so, I decided to give it a go. It's not 100%
perfect but alot of the main parts are correct. The fills in the verse are not perfect,
but they're in the right area. The way the song has been mixed makes the bass difficult
to hear. At least give me credit for trying...
