Monsters by Matchbook Romance I've seen a lot of tabs for this and though...yes they got the point across, they just weren't spot on. So I decided to make a tab. While this happens to be my first tab, a little while ago, my band played this song,and this was exactly how we played it. Anyway, I hope you enjoy my tab and find it useful :). *NOTE: (number)* means how many times that thing is played. I couldnt do (x2) or whatever because the program was messing up. Sorry for any confusion.

Remember, I put a lot of time into this and i would really appreciate comments and ratings. Enjoy! And thanks to Brad Schantz for the solo. www.TAB6.com
