Helsinki by Chris Shiflett & the Dead Peasants

Tabbed by:LesThanPaul
The first track from Chris Shiflett's side project. It's a pretty
easy song once you get the progression down. Have fun and enjoy!
UPDATE 4/13: I noticed some of the verse chords were a little
misplaced(probably formatting when I switched from word) so I
fixed that and added a solo which I recently finished
**special notes**
In the chorus parts that look like a jumbled mess of chords, it is just
the intro progression played beneath the words. I tried to line it up as
best I could, but it was a bit tricky.
Also, on most (maybe all) of the D chords in the song, he fools around with
the sus4. I'll leave that up to you whether you want to add them or not.
