This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

America Still Sleeps Tonight - Against Me!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by:Matt Gilles

Email: insaneotter9@yahoo.com

Tuning:Standard

Tabbed from the version on Crime. The ska chords can be substitued for regular barre

chords, if they need to sound any stronger. It'd sound better barred if tit's

being played acoustic, but be sure to accent the bottom few strings.
