'Glad I Don't Know' by The Lemonheads
------------------------------------
from the 1987 album (cassette release) Hate Your Friends
Tab by James Glover (Sebadonut)
Standard Tuning
Use a lot of high gain distortion and throw in the open e B and G strings for that loose punk feel.
Just to note, in the verses I prefer to walk the root notes down from D to C# rather than playing
the full C# power chord - it sounds better to my ear but go with what feels best to you.
