I Am The Challenger - Fireworks
Tabbed by: Dustin Fox
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first submission so go easy on me.
I have been looking for this song for awhile couldn't find it anywhere so I did
my best to figure it out by ear this sounds right to me.
This song is finger picked but the chord shapes can just as easily be strummed
**Note: any time there is a Gadd/b chord let it ring.. but you should notice that
when you listen to the song.
***Also, each chord that is marked here represents a full 4 beat measure except
for the ones with half written above it which means they are only a half
measure.
(EADGBe)
****Ultimate guitar does not recognize Gadd4/b but it is (x20013)
Tuning: Standard, capo on the third fret
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My best attempt at tabs for a full 4/4 measure of each chord
