I know Man Overboard do their songs in flat tuning normally, but I hate
tuning my guitar flat so I've done this tab in Drop D. If you're playing
in flat then just transpose it up, shouldn't be too hard.
There's also the odd harmonic or tone chucked in every so often, so play
those if you want to, but they're background so I just haven't tabbed them.
Feel free to comment and post any corrections you want up, cheers! DR~
h - hammer on
p - pull off
x - mute note
* - palm mute
~ - let note ring
H - pinch harmonic
