Hell of a Hat - The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Tabbed by Frosty, adefrost@charter.net
Trombone Tab
This is a pretty confusing song, so it might be hard to follow. You can't hear
Dennis on the album very well so the notes are what he played on Live From the
Middle East, but it's mapped out to how it it's done on the album. I suggest
listening to Live From the Middle East so you can actually hear the trombone
part that I have tabbed here.
Note: "=" means fall from first note to following note
