Balaclava

Text File

What a tune. Ok so there is 2 tabs already for this but this is my version with the corrections and bits missed out by the others. I've made this tab in a way so that any guitarist can learn this song no matter what level, to help learn this song it helps if you have the song on whilst trying to learn certain bits for timing etc. Intro (Bass only) Intro lyrics: Running off over next doors garden before the hour is done It's more a question of feeling than it is a question of fun The confidence is the balaclava I'm sure you'll baffle 'em good But the end in reek of salty cheeks and runny make up alone! Oh well... Intro bass: G|------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------| A|----5-7-9---4---5----5-7-9---4---5--| E|--7-------5---3----7-------5---3----| Verse 1: Lyrics: Blood runs down the face of a boy bewildered and scorned And you find yourself in a scurmage where you wish you'd never been born An you tie to yourself to the tracks and there isn't no going back And it's wrong wrong wrong but we'll do it anyway cause we love a bit of trouble!
