The Clash album (UK Version) – The Clash Tabbed by: childofbodem Email: bradleyion@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard Note – You can play with power chords or barre chords, just see what works for you. I do a mix of both :) These are all the chords, so there are no solos. These are just Joe’s Parts. Comment, rate and correct if you want. Will tab out Mick’s parts once I’ve figured them out.
