Artist:         Charles Manson
Song:           Big Iron Door (Clang Bang Clang)
Tabbed by:      neuroxik
E-mail:         neuroxik [-at] gmail [dot-] com

Tuning:         Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb (Tune down half A step)
Chord Names:    Chord names relative to fret position

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES:

>> IMPORTANT:  Because the chords vary a lot, like Bm without the small string 
     then Bm WITH the small string, instead of having a load of chord names
    at the beginning I tabbed them throughout to make it easier to play
     along. BUT, the tabs --DO NOT REFLECT-- the strumming pattern, they're
     just there as a guide.
>> T = Thumb, when written under tab
>> Yes, Em7M (0654xx) sounds dissonant, as does when he recorded it, which
     give it more character. I'm only noting it in case people ask "Are you
     sure?"
>> Because Eb7 is played with the 6th fret on 5th string at some places and
     others not, I took the freedom to name it Eb7[2] where that note is 
     not played to make it easier to visualize.
