Reply To: Screwed Chords
Here is my revised tab: you’ll have to put it into a monospaced font, of course. There may still be some errors. I think the Em6 (no 5) is probably not the right name for that chord in this context, but I admit that could be wrong.
Fixed some of the lyrics to correspond to what is in the recording, or at least what I hear…
