WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody Bass | Version #1
Well... I've been taking so much tablature and information from this newsgroup
that I thought I'd better repay the favour. I hope this bass transcription is o
f some use to at least somebody in the world and I guess some guitarists may be
able to use the names of the chords given. If this is of any use to you, please
post a reply either to the newsgroup as an article or E-Mail me personally, I
really would appreciate any sensible comments. Also, if antbody else wants some
more Queen transcriptions, I may be able to help. Look forward to hearing from
people,
Cheers!
Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen (Words and Music By F. Mercury) 1975
