• Song:

    City Sleeps In Flames

  • Artist:

    Scary Kids Scaring Kids

Alright, no one has taken the time to tab out all the picky details of this song...so I 
it a shot. I know a few things are off, but maybe someone can help me correct that?

Tuning: Drop D

Please listen to the song for proper strumming, it's hard to put in a tab.
