--King for a Day--
By: Crush    
Face in the Crowd (2003)
Written by: Cory Tetford and Gordie Sampson

Tabbed by: Warren H.

I heard this amazing and addicting song on OZ FM and immediately wanted to play it on bass, but there were no tabs on the web for it, so I decided to give it a shot and figure it out.  Didn't take long to tab because it is an easy song but really fun to play.  This is my first submitted tab.. I don't think there is too much wrong with it.. but if there is, give me a shout... thanx .. enjoy ;)
