The Revisionist Chords & Tabs
The Lawrence Arms - The Revisionist
It sounds kind of alright compared to the album version,
although it's very probable that Chris didn't quite play
it like this. Also, verse 2 is sort of a rough guideline
here. He's basically just messing around a bit, so try
making up some stuff of your own. Hope you like it.
