James Brown – Papas Got A Brand New Bag (Guitar Tab)

Versions (3)

Auto-scroll

I don't know the tuning but I think its a bit higher than standard, but here it is. Notes: -Through out the entire song the chords are played one at a time and then a pause, so it is chord-pause-chord-pause and so on. The only part that isn't is the end part of the verse. -Also all of the chords in the first part of the verse are "Fret Hand Muted" For Beginning Guitarists, Basically right after you play the chord just lift your fingers off the fret just enough to stop the note vibration.
