Neil Young - Crime In The City guitar tab
This is my first tab that I did by ear so yeah...
The whole song is pretty distorted so put your "gain" & "distortion" all the way up.
the tabs I found had the opening played with messed up chords that all sounded terrible, I
tabbed it so listeners can identify it.
~ = let it ring a little
b = bend
h = hammer on
p = pull off
Intro
Listen to the song to get the pattern, it really just sounds like messy picking, but
well with the distortion.
