Artist: Drain Sth
Song: Simon Says
Album: Freaks of nature (1999)
By: Jari Levisto (levari@yeayea.com)

I've tabbed this song in regular tuning, 'cause I have no idea what
tuning they used on the record. Notes in () produce a lower sound if
you use them, and it sounds more like on the record.

The bass intro/chorus riff, gtr. uses the same riff.
