--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written Invitation - The Whigs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: adslam3 NOTE: Strumming is not going to be exact. Listen for the changes. Tuning: Standard To get the chords, use your thumb on the big E string. I play the song with the A open, but it could be muted if you wanted to.
