Papa's Got A Brand New Bag Tabs

(ver. 1)
James Brown
James Brown

I don't know the tuning but I think its a bit higher than 
standard, but here it is.

Notes: -Through out the entire song the chords are played
        one at a time and then a pause, so it is
        chord-pause-chord-pause and so on. The only part
        that isn't is the end part of the verse.
       -Also all of the chords in the first part of the 
        verse are "Fret Hand Muted"
        For Beginning Guitarists, Basically right after you 
        play the chord just lift your fingers off the fret 
        just enough to stop the note vibration.
