• Song:

    Monster

  • Artist:

    Paramore

NOTE: these are the notes I think they play - I got them by listening to the song, 
so they may not be entirely correct.
During the chorus at some points a clean guitar plays some high notes - those that 
are also played during the verse - but in another order.

Feel free to correct me - to make this tab as accurate as possible.

Have fun!

  But I let my heart go, it's somewhere down the bottom.
Em               Cadd9   G                   D
  But I'll get a new one, come back from the hope that you've stolen.
