Band: 	Bad Religion
Album:	The Empire Strikes First
Song:	Social Suicide


I couldn't find a tab that sounded like the song on the cd. All the other tab seemed a 
off so here one pretty close to how i played it when i did song with my friends band a 
ago. I improvise a bit during the song with strum patters and fils but this is the basic parts of the song.


Tuning: Standard

INTRO:
     A  \G  A  \G  C   G
e|------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------555---------------------555----------|X2
D|---777\55-777\55-555-5555--777\55-777\55-555-555.-----|
A|---777\55-777\55-333-5555--777\55-777\55-333-555.-----|
E|---555\33-555\33-----3333--555\33-555\33-----333.-----|

Verse:

the guitar playing the intro keeps doing this during the verse X2

the second guitar slides from a G chord in the intro and into this play:
(you can play both guitars the same way but since our second guitarist also is the lead 
we did his verse-bit a little easier to play while holding the rythm of the singing)

- This is how i play it and it sounds allright. There are no "correct" ways to tab a 
but this is as close as it gets.
