Tabs

Due to the helpful advice of one of the readers on this Newsgroup, I have
	figured out what I HOPE to be the correct way to play "Black Flag"
	by King's X.  Note the "E" is tuned down to "D" (helpful advice).

Chord diagramE MajorE|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Chord diagramD MajorD|--------3---3--------0--------3---3--------0-0x-3x-1x-0---3---3--------0-|

                                      ^                 ^

Chord diagramE MajorE|-----------------||  This is for the beginning of the song and the refrain.
Chord diagramBB|-----------------||  What follows is the variation used for the lyrical
Chord diagramG+G|---------0-----0-||  section of the song.  Refer to the "^"'s above.
Chord diagramD MajorD|-------0-----0---||  Chord diagramG+G|-------0----------||
Chord diagramA augmentedA|-----------------||  Chord diagramD MajorD|-----0---0--------||

                       Chord diagramD MajorD|-0-3-------0-1~-0-||
                          ^              ^

...and now, the tab for the lead-in to the refrain.

...and finally, the tab for the "It's... what's up... with ME..." part...

I hope that this is right, and that my new TAB notation is legible.  I think
	that it's a good system, because it allows for tuned-down or -up
	strings, bends, and other things.  Let me know what you think.

P.S.- If you know King's X, a heavy, wooden, bass-laden guitar sound should
	sound best with this song.  Bon guitar-age!
