Buzzbomb by the Dead Kennedys from the album "Plastic Surgery Disasters" tabbed by Tom Mallon (tsmallon@syr.edu) Most of the guitar parts in this song are a guitar figure that Ray moves up and down as the chord changes. The figure looks like this in G: E ----------------------------------------------- B ----------------------------------------------- G ----------------------------------------------- D ---5-5--------5-5------------------------------ A ---5-5-6-5----5-5-6-5-------------------------- E ---3-3-----6--3-3-----6-3----------------------
Just move that up and down the neck as the chord changes. Some of the other chords, mainly in the "chorusy" section ("Plow through rest area...") are just barre chords. G G# Buzzbomb buzzbomb ...
