Kill the President

Hi! This is my first Tab, so if I've made any mistakes let me know!

Cadd4 is just a C with an f on the high e string added. I'm not sure if it's 
actually the correct name for the chord so correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, this is an acoustic version I made by listening to the original song as well 
as an acoustic rendition of it, so it likely doesn't exactly match either. I use 
almost all barre chords except the intro and very end.



[Intro:]
Cadd4 C (X6)

Cadd4               C (x32010@1)
What's the bullshit for?

Cadd4                            C (x32010@1)
Verbal battlefield. Syllables of war.

CI (x32010@1)shut myself off. It happens again.

C (x32010@1)                                         G (320003@1)name="chord_244322@1">F#
You're not my friend. You're not my friend.

You're not my friend.

C G A F (X2)
