Wicked Little Town - The Breeders
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
The original version of this song was written by Stephen Trask (I'm pretty sure.)
This version by Kim and Kelley Deal sounds a lot better in my opinion.
I'm not sure that this tab is 100% correct but there aren't any tabs for it online,
so it'll do for now.
Intro for Kim (Gtr 1) This is also the main riff for all the verses.

^^ It sounds like she palm mutes all the chords.^^
Gtr 2
I'm not exactly sure what she plays for the chorus but I guess you could try arpeggiating
the chords.
She does have this little riff when Kim is playing G.
