Song: It's alright
Artist: Pet Shop Boys
Album: Introscpective
Year: 1988
Tabber: beranger80@hotmail.com
N.B.: This is the album version, very different from the single one (for the lyrics, chords, and even structure)
The end was difficult to tab because of the riffs, solos and chords superposition.
I think everything is right and I hope this is clear enough...
It is not a song that I liked a lot, but now, I enjoy its structure.
