Song: So Far, So Bad
Artist: Five Iron Frenzy
Album: THE END IS NEAR
Words by Reese RoperMusic by Micah, Dennis and Reese
I couldn't believe no one has tabbed out this song yet but I guess
it is a bit tricky to hear all the parts, here's what I can figure
out of it!!
standard tuning
r = slight rest
x = mute
/ = slide
Intro, you can slide between these or play them all
on the same strings if you wish, doesn't matter. Play
it through twice:
