Gene Vincent - Dance To The Bop Chords & Tabs

Song: Dance to the Bop
Artist: Gene Vincent
Tuning: Standard

    Alright kids. Long time, no tab once again. We're going back to
where it all started, baby. And one of those places is Gene Vincent.
Simply put, no Gene Vincent, no Brian Setzer. Can't say enough
good things about Gene. His songs are energetic, fun to play,
and you should just end your life right now if his stuff doesn't
at least, make you want to shake your leg. Standard rock n roll
composition here. Your typical A,D,E progression. But the rhythm
of this piece makes it very fun to play. Strums are not exact.
Listen carefully for the changes. Lets go!!

That's it for this one kids. I plan on tabbing more Gene

Flight Rock by Eddie Cochran. Let me know what you think!
Have fun!
