ON DISTANT SHORES... - Five Iron Frenzy
 
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Album: The End is Near
Tabbed by: me
Email: skemo_the_fish@hotmail.com
Tuning: Standard
Okay, so nobody was tabbing this song, so I decided to give it a try, most of it
I am totally unsure of, especially the ska guitar part, but i did my best and if
you could post corrections that would help, thanks.
Intro:
[Em] [D] [G] [A] [C] [D] [G] [B]
