Jumping up and down the floor
My head is an animal
And once there was an animal
It had a son that mowed the lawn
The son was an okay guy
They had a pet dragonfly
The dragonfly it ran away
But it came back with a story to say
Her dirty paws and furry coat
She ran down the forest slope
The forest of talking trees
They used to sing about the birds and the bees
The bees had declared a war
The sky wasn't big enough for them all
The birds they got help from below
From dirty paws and the creatures of snow
And for a while things were cold
They were scared down in their holes
The forest that once was green
Was colored black by those killing machines
But she and her furry friends
Took down the queen bee and her men
And that's how the story goes
The story of the beast with those four dirty paws

Excellent. Thank you. Though I prefer 1h3 on the E instead of 3h5 on the G. It keeps the plucking pattern more consistent.

1h3 means that you keep your finger on 1 and use a different finger to "hammer down" on the 3rd fret. It creates the cool and smooth sound that is heard in the song. Thanks so much! :)

In the tab, does like the 1h3 mean that you slide? I did that and it sounds similar to how it sounds in the song. But nice job :) It's the best tab of Dirty Paws on here.

Thanks for the comment. The G# chord is confusing but is correct- if you notice there's a 3 on the side, which means the fingering shown starts on the third fret. Glad you liked the tab :)

Very nice, only thing I noticed was that the G# chord example thing is one fret low so that might confuse anyone who didn't already know it. Other than that, nice!
