Band: American Hi-Fi Song: Flavor of the Weak (Acoustic) Tuning: standard EADGBE (Capo on the 1st Fret) Alright, I could never find a transcription of the acoustic version of this song, so I've finally gotten fed up enough to tab it myself, b/c I think it's an even better song unplugged. I'm basing this off the '01 Live Radio version, but I've tried to combine Stacy's Rhythm part and Jamie's lead part into a piece for a solo acoustic guitar, so the song's been changed around a little. All notes are relative to capo, except for the solo. Enjoy...
