       TIME  BOMB  TOWN"     By   Mr  LINDSEY   BUCKINGHAM.  
As it appears on the "Back to The Future" sound track .
-"Time Bomb Town" was the first song I ever heard by Lindsey Buckingham. It
totally freaked me out,in a most positive way and I had it in my head for 
weeks. The only way to get rid of 
it was to transcribe it, and so I did. ENJOY!-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the chord figure that goes on through the VERS and the INTRO:

4/4 | Abm(1)       Ebm7 F#(1) |  Abm(1)     Ebm7 F#(2) | 

| Abm(2)   F#(2) F#sus4 |  Ab5  Ab(2) Ebm7 |   


This is somthing like what is beeing played in the PRE-CHORUS:

4/4 | Abm           | (E)        E(2)  B | F#(3)      | (D)      D(2) A |
