Guitar Tab

Song: I'm So Bad
Artist: Oingo Boingo
Album: Oingo Boingo E.P.
Written by: Danny Elfman
Tabbed by: boingo692x@mail.telis.org


It seems like their using a slide, so I tried to tab it out so that it's
possible to play with a slide on your pinky, without detuning the guitar


INTRO(palm muted except on the last two notes) Repeat four times

I was born inside a cage...(I've got the bass and guitar tabbed together, and
                            you have to take off the slide for this part.)
