Beacon Sighted Through Fog

Minutemen
Bass Tab

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

Song

"Beacon sighted through fog"

originally from "What makes a man start fires?"

by MINUTEMEN

(though I took it from "Post-Mersh Vol.1" - SST CD 138).
