Bad Things To Such Good People tab by The Pedro

Guitar Tab

There's another one of this song already up, but I have quite a few additions to the
verses and chorus and I did the bridge completely differently.  It's still a little
shaky, but I think it's at least close.  Here you go.  Email me if you've got
suggestions: gravis127@hotmail.com.  And I'm tabbing this from the version on Winner
Never Quit, I don't know if there's another different version out there, I've seen
some weird tabs for this song.

----------------------------------------------------

Capo 3

***NOTE*** when you see a number followed by a "T" it means to play that number fret
with your thumb (kinda tricky).

........and end on A minor.....and thats it.

Not a very tough song, but sounds really cool if you play it just right.  On the
bridge, I'm pretty sure about the E, A, D, and G strings, but the B and the e are
pretty questionable.  It sounds at least similar.  I'm open to comments:
