------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is my first attempt at tabbing so of course there are going to be mistakes. I mostly wanted to make this tab for the horn lines and the solo, but I thought I should just put everything here. I borrowed the intro and verses from another tab http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/j/joe_walsh/a_life_of_illusion_ver2_tab.htm Guitar I - rhythm Guitar II - lead -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Drop D ================================================== CHORDS
