Government flu
JUST A LITTLE NOTE TO ANYONE WHO DOWNLOADS THIS SONG... I made a mistake
(okay a bunch of mistakes) and I don't feel like fixing every single one of
them and its much easier for me to tell you what to do instead of fixing
them all...
okay when a power chord is written down like this...
e- ---
B- -9- it should look like this; e- ----
G- -9- B- -10-
D- -7- G- --9-
A- --- D- --7-
E- --- A- ----
E- ----
so just remember... when ever a power chord crosses onto the "B"
string... move the note one fret higher on the "B" string
