------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Swing Swing - The All-American Rejects ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Drew Email: alreadytite@hotmail.com Author's Note: Hey, this is my first tab. I know for damn sure I did pretty well, especially for a newbie tabber. This is one of my favorite songs, so I decided to tab it. Thanks and credits go to WingNutt and Johan. I learned these songs from their tabs first, but they still had a few errors. I pretty much fixed the solo and the chords you play at the end of the pre-chorus, and the intro is right. I also decided to add chords to the bottom so it would be easier for you guys to learn. If I made a mistake or a typo anywhere, please correct me. Hope you all enjoy.
