Okay, so my band, Otonamous, is gunna cover this song, and I learned my part
by ear, and the other guitar player in my band was gunna look up a tab. so I
was gunna refer him to a good one. And they were all wrong. So I made one of
my own. Tell me if i screwed up anywhere. For the most part, it's correct.
If anything is wrong it just means I transcribed it wrong. Cuz I know how to
play it right.
Check out my band, Otonamous, on Facebook!! send us a message and tell us
what you think!!
