A Flowery Song tab by Five Iron Frenzy
Guitar Tab
Okay, no other tabs for this song are accurate :/ (sorry to other contributors who made them)...however, this tab is dead-on and contains both lead and rhythm!!! :-D First off, notice that this song uses ska strumming (palm mute downstroke but play upstroke); therefore, it uses ska chords!!! The chords used in this song are the following (read top line as high e string and bottom line as low E string and asterisk [*] means play as an octave): A A5 A#5 B B5 C#5 D#* E E5 E* F* F#5 3 x x 7 x x x x x x x x 3 x x 7 x x x 9 x x x x 4 x x 8 x x 8 9 x 9 10 11 5 7 8 9 9 11 x 9 2 x x x x 7 8 x 9 11 6 7 2 7 8 9 x 5 6 x 7 9 x x 0 x x x
