Artist - Vance Joy
Song - Riptide
Tab by - David Ehlert

I know there are a ton of Riptide tabs but it didn't look like anyone nailed down the solo yet so here it is.
It's pretty simple, I put the whole song in here too, so you can get it all in one place.
All comments, corrections and suggestions are welcome.
Thanks

Vance plays this with a KALA TENOR Ukulele tuned like a Baritone uke dGBE
