Obvious - Blink 182
Tabbed by: VASKEN MARKARIAN

THIS IS RIGHT!!!!!
VERSION 5 IS THE RIGHT ONE BUT I CONVERTED IT TO DROP Cb (OR WHAT EVERYONE SAIS AS DROP
C#)
Tuning: Drop Cb (Cb,G#,Cb,F#,Bb,D#)
THE ACTUAL TUNING THAT TOM USES IS 1 & HALF STEPS DOWN AND VERSION 5 HAS THAT AND
VERSION 5 IS CORRECT. BUT I CAN CONVERT IT TO DROP Cb.
ARE YOU CONFUSED ABOUT TUNING? go to
