Warsaw


Artist: Them Crooked Vultures Album: Them Crooked Vultures Track: Warsaw Or the First Breath You Take After You Give Up Length: 7:50 Difficulty: Intermediate I had trouble figuring out this song, but managed to get down most parts of this song. tab DOES NOT include the solo because I mainly improvise on it as it is basic scales in just get yourself a wah pedal and have fun. This is my first tab so this tab is far from perfect or anywhere close to the real but I play by ear, so this is what I managed to figure out, and it sounds pretty damn close. Not every part of the song is here just bits and pieces that I learned. But if you can this I think you can get the rest of the song on your own!! Enjoy, and please leave comments!
