Tabs

Song: "The Hell Song"
Band: Sum 41
Album: "Does This Look Infected?"
Performed by: Deryck Whibley (vocals, rhythm guitar), Dave Baksh (lead
guitar), Jay McCaslin (bass), and Steve Jocz (drums)
Intro, Verses, and Chorus originally tabbed by: Andres Lazo

Solo originally tabbed by: Rocko
Altered/Corrected by: Braden
Comments: I modified parts of the intros, verse, and solo to my liking.
The solo is exactly the way I play it, and it sounds just fine along
with Dave's killer guitar part. It is missing some very small components
but I find this way is generally easier to play and goes with the song well.
I will mark the parts I made alterations to (no matter how small) with *'s.
And lastly- thanks to Andres Lazo and Rocko, wherever you are, for doing the
brunt of the work with this killer song.

Standard tuning- EADGBe

Guitar 1=Dave "Brownsound" Baksh
Guitar 2=Deryck "Bizzy D" Whibley
