BANNED IN D.C - BAD BRAINS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Song: Banned In DC
Artist: Bad Brains
Album: Bad Brains
Tuning: Standard
Havent seen any guitar tabs for this, just bass tabs, so i sat down at busted one out.
- I made a little chord diagram cus he uses different E's. Also when theres a "5" next
the chord that means its a power chord.
Also, almost every time an E5 is played, instead of just strumming it he slides from D#5
now and then. i didnt write these D#'s in but listen to the track to see what im
about... he does the same slidy thing on the A's in the 2nd verse.
CHORD DIAGRAM:
