all hell in a basement — текст песни (big sugar)

Band: Big Sugar
Song: All Hell for a basement
Album: Brothers and Sisters Are You Ready
Tab: Paulo Day (amskatevic@hotmail.com)

Canada rules!


guitar: mellow overdriven fender twin reverb like smoothness,
but lay into it when the chorus hits

bass: semi-deep synth feel always pushing in the background
The bass is extremely important (Bass tab coming soon)


Verse 1+3 is a single note guitar interpretation of the bass part.
You can sing Verse 1+3 with the beginning riff or the notes above the lyrics:
