Artist: Lagwagon
Song: Max says
Album: Blaze (2003)

Tabbed by Fatty3 (Phatty3@web.de)

This song is so full of feelings that it should've been
on Let's talk about feelings...extremely catchy riffs..
and I guess this kind of  song arrangement will become
standard for Fat Wreck Chords Bands, as you can also see
on the new Mad Caddies and the new NOFX Album...It'll get
more and more difficult to simply sing along with these songs
because they are a huge complex of riffs and melodies...


h -hammer on
p -pull off
b -bend

v -vibrato
/ -slide up
\ -slide down
