THE BLUETONES - "Blood Bubble" Tablature

Words and Music by the The Bluetones (Devlin, Chesters, Morriss, Morriss and Payne)

I saw quite a few requests for this song so i've had a go at transcribing it. Sounds true to the origional. The intro riff is doubled with an acoustic guitar (i think) alongside a clean electric. For the distorted parts - a pedal seems to work as well as using the channels on the amp. Cheers and enjoy - Jon

You'll have to work out the order which the parts go in but they are all there
Have fun, but stay out of trouble you crazy kids.
