ALKALINE TRIO - HELL YES Tabbed by Dirtbikejoe47 (baugh57@hotmail.com) This in my opinion is one of Alkaline Trio's best songs. It appears courtesy of Lookout Records on the "Hell Yes" 7" EP in March 2001 and on a Lookout Records compilation "Lookout Freakout: Episode 2" in October 2001. One last note, I've seen Matt Skiba play this and I've been playing guitar for 5 years so I'm 100% positive this tab is right.
