LOWER YOUR HEAD AND TAKE IT IN THE BODY - AFI
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By: pattyboy15@aol.com
This is one of the better songs on Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes. Its not
that hard to play and I'm curious as to why no one tabbed it out. Well, I took
the liberty and here's what I came up with. Its pretty much perfect, if not
entirely.
This song can also be played with barre chords, but then you have to have kinda
fast fingers. It sounds good either way.
*= play a few times
pm= palm mute

===============================================================================
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official AFI tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
