Do Wacka Do Tab

   
Artist: Roger Miller
Song: Do Wacka Do
Tabbed By: JohnnyV

Tabbed this myself by ear after cracking up at the episode of Raising Hope that I heard 
it on. Hilariously fun tune to sing and play. The "Root, doot, doot, doot, doot, do-doo, 
doo" part might not be 100% accurate, but this is the best I've got. Enjoy.

Legend:

p = Pull-off
/ = Slide up
b = Bend
