Radiohead - Dollars And Cents guitar tab
SONG: Dollars and Cents
ALBUM: Amnesiac
BAND: Radiohead
My favourite song from Amnesiac, what I've written here isn't exactly the
same way i've seen it played live, but the chords are right.
It'd sound good with just two guitars;
one strumming the rythym and the other playing the simple bass line.
Take it or leave it, untill someone posts a fuller version.
Instructions for tab:
