Subject: TAB: "Buzzbomb" by Dead Kennedys
Buzzbomb by the Dead Kennedys
from the album "Plastic Surgery Disasters"
tabbed by Tom Mallon (tsmallon@syr.edu)
Most of the guitar parts in this song are a guitar figure that Ray
moves up and down as the chord changes. The figure looks like this
in G:
E ----------------------------------------------- B ----------------------------------------------- G ----------------------------------------------- D ---5-5--------5-5------------------------------ A ---5-5-6-5----5-5-6-5-------------------------- E ---3-3-----6--3-3-----6-3----------------------
Just move that up and down the neck as the chord changes.
Some of the other chords, mainly in the "chorusy" section
("Plow through rest area...") are just barre chords.
