"Don't Drag Me Down"
by Social Distortion
CD:White Light White Heat White Trash
Tabbed by grasshopa corrected from Mike Thompson's
Sorry if I mess up a lot this is my first tab. I've basically
retabbed the whole thing except the chords.
> = slide
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
^ = bend
/10/ = artificial harmonic
(10) = ghost note
Chords throughout the whole song go like this:
e|------------------------------------------------------------
b|------------------------------------------------------------
g|--5---------8-----------------------------------------------
d|--5----6----8----8------------------------------------------
a|--3----6----6----8------------------------------------------
E|-------4---------6------------------------------------------
Intro:
e|-1>3-----------------------------------3--------------------
b|-----4-------4---4--6h8-8-8-686---66-----4-------4---44-----
g|-------5---5-------------------------------5---5------------
d|---------6-----------------------------------6--------------
a|------------------------------------------------------------
E|------------------------------------------------------------
e|------------
b|->8-8-8-686-
g|------------
d|------------
a|------------
E|------------
The chords go on until you get to this bridge before the first solo,
you can block the other strings with your index finger and just
strum it, that's the way I play it, since you're playing to the
same rhythm as the chords pretty much.

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 SOCIAL DISTORTION 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.
