Take The Blame Tabs

(ver. 1)
Blue Collar Special

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

This track is by far one of if not their best they've done so far! I've tabbed out
the two acoustic guitars in the intro and outro, and there are two electric guitars
in the verse, however, for the verse i've only done the one, playing the main rhythm
parts!  I'm pretty sure this is all correct, but if you have any corrections, please

Cheers, Mark!:D

Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)

¦¦ o    o ¦¦
¦¦        ¦¦   When you see this in the chorus, what i mean is that you repeat
¦¦ o    o ¦¦   the chorus, and play the bit with "1.--¬" the first time and the
¦¦        ¦¦   the bit with "2.--¬" the second time! Just so there's no confusion!
