The White Stripes
Title: Seven Nation Army
Album: Elephant
Composted By: Andrew Mazurak
Sorry for the two exact versions on here, had it under 7 Nation Army but I guess they changed it to match the other one.
Fixed all the lyrics so the song is exact. Jack White uses an octive guitar or pedal to make the bass line, but since
probally 95% of people dont own either this is the best way to make it sound right... which is why I dit he tab in the
first place.
To start off drop the low E to a dropped B to get the base part correct.

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna fight em all,
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back.
They're gonna rip it off,
Takin their time right behind my back.
And i'm talking too myself at night because I can't forget.
Back and fourth through my mind behind a cigarette.

[Verse 2]
Don't wanna hear about it,
Every single one's got a story to tell.
Everyone knows about it,
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell.
And if I catch you coming back my way i'm gonna serve it to you.
And that aint what you want to hear, but that's what i'll do.

[Verse 3]
I'm going to Wichita,
Far from this opera for evermore.
I'm gonna work the straw,
Make the sweat drip out of every pore.
And i'm bleeding and i'm bleeding and i'm bleeding right before the lord.
All the words are gonna bleed from me, and I will think no more.
