Time Bomb

The Dismemberment Plan

Text File

Artist: The Dismemberment Plan Song: Time Bomb Album: Change tab by Jackie Joyner The song is very straight forward from a rhythm guitar stand point. There's mainly 2 repeating sections until about 2:35 when it changes slightly. There really is no defined chorus or verse in the song, only times when Travis sings and when he doesn't so that's why I have sections that are Verse/Chorus. Also there are multiple guitars in this song, but I'm only going to tab it for solo guitar. Structure: Verse/Chorus Instr. Breakdown Verse/Chorus x2 Instr.
