America - Star Spangled Banner tab

This is my first tab ever with the super rookie in mind.
It's a fun song to play especially on a distorted guitar and it`s good practice for 
warming up your fingers.
I added the Fingerset in the first row. There is no focus on the timing though. But it 
is very easy to figure out when you play along.


(I) Indexfinger
(M) Middlefinger
(R) Ringfinger
(P) Pinkie



Additional Tipps:
on the 3rd fret notes on 2 different Strings just roll your finger down. Also works with 
rolling up but its a little harder and you will have to think ahead.

If the B-Chord in the ending is too hard dont worry and play a single B note (3rd Fret 
on the G-String), a B5-Chord or whatever.


Here we go:
