       High class in overcruise, A little hip talk in borrowed shoes

                           (hold)

Notes:
-Bar lines indicate measures of 4/4 time.
-Dots (...) located under any staff are for timing, and indicate where the
 downbeats (1234) fall.
-I don't think the final three staves are 4/4 time all the way through,
 but I'm not sure what the time signature shifts are. That part is all 8th
 notes, and using the timing dots under the staff will show where 8th rests
 occur.
-More Max Webster tabs (and other Canadian band tabs) can be found on my
 tab website. There's a link to the site on my UG Profile Page. (Click on
