song: Richard Coury artist: The Menzingers album: A Lesson In The Abuse Of Information Technology tabbed by: fr3shb4ng Hey folks, I love this band and I love this song and its meaning. I think that the few tabs available aren't any good at all. I don't claim that my suggestion is 100% correct but definetely more fitting than the other versions you'll find. Other tabbers out there, no offense, I appreciate your work. ;) Alright, so we go with standard tuning, strumming pattern is easy to figure out, just play along with the album version. PS.: for the Em I like to play Em7, sounds nice as well... 1st verse
