--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Artist: Good Charlotte
Album: Young And The Hopeless
Song: The Anthem(written by Benji and Joel)
Tunning: for a 5 string bass :Standard: BEADG
Tunning: for a 4 string bass :Dropped D Tunning, Low to high DADG
Tabbed by : Zero is great man
The Bass Player in this band plays with a 5 string bass, Which I find
unnessesary cause you can always down tune the e string to a d, But for
the sake of being accurate, and practical, I posted the song for both
a 5 and a 4 string bass.
