I don’t see many X Ambassadors tabs on here yet, so I figured I’d try my hand at tabbing one of my new favorite songs of 2015. Enjoy!

And I said Bm D A G Hey, hey hey hey hey! Living like we’re Renegades Bm D A G Hey hey hey, hey hey hey! Living like we’re Renegades Bm D A G Renegades Bm D A G Renegades The solo/outtro is so distorted and heavy on effects that I couldn’t hear it accurately enough to tab it out.
From the debut album by X Ambassadors comes the single Renegades. It was actually written for the TV-commercial for the Jeep Renegade car, and has because of this been the most popular song by the group. The song and guitar arrangements was written very fast, and was delivered to the car-company and record company just a few days after they got the request.
Coming from Ithaca, New York, this alternative rock band will probably be seen everywhere in the time to come.
