Song
"Dr. Seuss is Dead" by Acid Bath
From the album When the Kite String Pops
This tab is MY INTERPERTATION of the song and created as accurate
as possible. I did this for educational & entertainment purposes.
I couldn't find any good tabs for this song on the net, so I
decided to type one out. I do not make tabs on a regular basis,
so please forgive any errors or mistakes. I did the best I could.
This tab is the most accurate you'll find. If you see any errors
or problems feel free to email me at johnkei*@yahoo.com [change
the * to i]. Also feel free to distrube the tab on any site as
long as it is for educational purposes and NOT FOR SALE. - John H
