HOW LONG - The Eagles
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: woega
Email: woega@hotmail.com

Tuning: standard

This is my interpretation of the ENTIRE song, lyrics, chords,
tabs including the INTRO, all RIFFS, the SOLO and the OUTRO.

I've tried to be as accurate as I can, but I'm open for suggestions :)

I've included the riffs and the lyrics alternating, so the lyrics should not
be linked to the tabs directly underneath.
