"Mr Pinnodmy's Dilemma"

drop d tuning (DADGBE)
This song is very bass-heavy so at times the guitar gets drowned out or
may not be playing [but i digress]; basically, the intro and the verse
are all barred power chords [i.e. E MajorE is the lowest three strings barred
at the second fret, D MajorD is the lowest three string open, etc.]
It might be interesting to play it with open chords.

So...standard disclaimer: This is my own interpretation of this song.
I'm not
making any money off it, nor do i think this is a completely accurate
representation
of the song. If you want the professional, accurate transcription then
get the sheet
music (which I doubt they make).
This was my first ever transcription (I know, starting a little late in
the game).
I hope it helps and turns you on to some music you maybe wouldn't have
normally sought out.
