WHAT AM I GONNA DO - The Dovers
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Gabriel Encinas
Here's this nugget from the Dovers, a minor hit from back in 1965. For starters
I'd like to notice that this song should be played on a 12-string guitar.
This song is played with a Capo on the First fret on some versions.
