Midlife Crisis Chords & Tabs
This is my second tab and since there aren't that many tabs on this song I decided to
submit a guitar and bass tab for this.
I was lazy so, to get rid of the repetition while writing down the tab I've included all
that you need to know and when you repeat individual parts I'll refer to what you're playing.
If you see any errors or if a part isn't right please don't hesitate to correct them in
the comments section, it will help out a lot! :]
