• Song:

    Only Rock And Roll Can Save Us Now

  • Artist:

    Tyler Read

  • Album:

    Only Rock and Roll Can ...

Tabbed by: Shard Heilia
Tuning: Standard, down 1/2 step




There's a lot of bends, so I'll explain my method of tabbing bends.

x(y) = Bend fret x to sound like fret y
(y)x = Start on fret x bent up to fret y, then release

And there's a bend in here that's held under another note, you'll see it. 
Listen to the song if you don't understand.
