Chords with lyrics
RANCID - ROOTS RADICALS
Guitar Tab
(Cross your fingers and hope that my mail program doesn't sucK)
Ok, here's my tab. I figured it out by listening to the CD and watching
them play it on Saturday Night Live. Here goes...
CHORDS: (I put down three variations, on SNL, RAncid used mostly the open
chords, but the powerchords are easier and sound just as good, if not
better. The other set of powerchords is an octave up and maybe
you'd rather play it with them) Standard Tuning (E,A,D,G,B,E - from bottom)
