Bad Romance Chords & Tabs
Song: Bad Romance
Band: A Smile From The Trenches
Tabber: IanSaysRawr
Tuning: Drop D
This version is in Drop D. They actually play in Drop C. My band stays in
standard and drop D for convenience, so I tabbed it out for that. To play it
the way it's "supposed" to be played, just move all the frets up 2 whilst
tuned to Drop C. The bridge, however, is already tabbed as if it were in Drop
C. Comments? Suggestions? Feel free to comment here or send me a message.
