Chords

Song: River Styx Artist: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Album: Beat The Devil's Tattoo Guitarists: Robert Levon Been & Peter Hayes Tabbed by: Pini-Glock A great song on a great album, I tabbed the notes Robert plays on this video: notes in chords so it's easier for you to play! A tip for playing during the verses: Try to only hit the upper 3 strings, this way you get the bass even better. ;) If you have suggestions or questions you can always leave a comment on my UG page! :) Anyways enjoy this great song! Cheers Nick! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
