Smash Album Tab by The Offspring

Smash Album tab by The Offspring

Guitar Tab

This is the entire Offspring album SMASH transcribed by Jamie and David
Worsley and their
good friend Alex Wood. We've posted chords and rhythm as well as we can, but
in some
cases you might have to work out how many times a chord is strummed.(A * by
a chord
means strum it more than once, usually 4 times). Incidentally, some of this
was "borrowed"
from other peoples tab work, but a lot of it was horrendously messy and
craply done
previously.

Ah, it's time to relax, and you know what that means, a glass of
wine, your favourite easy chair, and of course this compact disc
playing on your home stereo. So go on indulge yourself, that's right,
kick off your shoes, put your feet up, lean back and and just enjoy
the melodies. After all, music soothes even the savage beast....
