Worker's Song - Dropkick Murphys
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Johnny Arson
Email: johnnyarson33@yahoo.com
Tuning: Standard EADGBe
Worker's Song is an excellent song for a class of people who need recognition.
["The workers, united, will never be defeated!" - Progressive Labor Party (PLP) chant]
I'm a little flaky on the solo though cuz I had a hard time getting it so I hope you
have better luck playing it than I did tabbing it. By the way, comments and suggestions
are openly excepted and don't forget to rate this tab. thanks.
