Alkaline Trio - While You're Waiting
album: Hot Water Music/Alkaline Trio split EP
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nobody has put this tab up anywhere on the net so far, so i thought
id be the first for once! This song is far too easy anyway, good for
punk beginners. Plus a lot of it is done solely on bass, and
although theres a lot of fiddling about with feedback throughout the song,
ive put the time when Matt's guitar comes in.
I havent put in the correct strumming pattern, its easy to figure out
yourself anyway, but if the notes are closer together that indicates
faster strumming. Enjoy
