-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning:EADGBe

Yo, this is Oli, and this is 'Blood On My Hands' by 'The King Blues'.

A raucous song by a truly awesome band, have fun playin this romper stomper of a track.  

For the intro, verse, interlude and outro play chords barred with upbeat reggae feel.

For the chorus strike each chord with feeling (lol?) 3 times.

Here goes my second tab!
