House Of Cards Chords & Tabs
Madina Lake - House Of Cards ('The Disappearance Of Adalia' EP Version)
Transcribed and tabbed by: sychosisdragon@yahoo.com
This is a new song from the band Madina Lake (Formerly The Blank Theory and Reforma.)
Update: Fixed the ending chords, thanks H_Zula.
NOTES: The lyrics appear above each measure to signify where in the song it is, not below.
The only time I tabbed a second guitar is when the riffs are different. So if two
play the same riff at one time, I can't tell. :)
Tuning: Drop C (C, G, C, F, A, D) Low to high
Legend:
~ = Let Ring
h = Hammer-on
p = Pull-off
