Give It Up Tab

by Midtown


ok so this took me 20 minutes to tab out. it's a really easy song to play.
i'm pretty sure it's correct. it sounds perfect when you play it. if you have
thing. the solo is just the solo in general. it's played the same way during
the whole thing but altered a little here and there with some bends and crap.
so fool around with it and listen to the song to get the whole thing.
