Ma Ma Ma Belle Tabs

(ver. 1)
Electric Light Orchestra
“Ma ma ma Belle” by Electric Light Orchestra

Hi everybody! (Hi Dr Nick!)
Anyway, I searched for this tab/chords all over the internet and couldn’t find it anywhere so I decided to try to 

tab it myself.  Note this is my first time tabbing and I am not the best guitar player, but I think the chords are 

right and that I pulled it off pretty well.  Hope you like it!!
