This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
AC/DC - "All Screwed Up"
From the "Stiff Upper Lip" Album
Standard Tuning
tabbed by jjhand
This song is harder to play by ear than your average ACDC song, so
I thought I'd tab it out & share. Great sound! Please rate/comment.
