Bulls On Parade Chords & Tabs
Ok, this is the REAL Bulls On Parade. Argue if you will, but this one sounds
ultimate. This Bad Ass Rage Song uses Dropped D tuning (DADGBE). If you don't
have an electric tuner, the 7th fret method should do just fine. I only use
a Yamaha Overdrive Pedal while playing this song, you should be able to get
one for $60 used, $100 new.
Intro w/ Heavy Distortion.

Solo: I can't put this on tab. Morello turns up the tone just before this and
rubs the strings between the pickups with his left hand. With his right, he
is flicking the toggle switch in a fast motion. Have fun trying!
