SONG: Too Bad
ARTIST: Nickelback
ALBUM: Silver Side Up (2001)
TAB: Mikey
E-MAIL: mikey@mikeybaby.cjb.net
TUNING: Drop-C (CGCFAD)
I've only seen one version of this song tabbed out, it was wrong, first of all I
am POSITIVE the tuning is drop-c (like drop-d, cept another whole step lower -
same as a lot of recent Deftones stuff). You only have to listen to the intro to this
song, and you can hear the open C string. I haven't tabbed out the lead riffs or
solo, cuz I'm a crap guitarist.
