Baby One More Time

Britney Spears

Text File

i was bored one night and i felt for some reason like working this song out so i did.
its one that (i assume) everyone knows, and would probably go down well in certain
situations; and anyway travis did a cover of it which was funny so here goes; 
this is my first tab by the way, but it seems right.


Key Cm (chords for the song at the bottom of the page)

arrangement for guitar because there arent guitars in the britney version.



Bb5 C5 C5
