When She Begins - Social Distortion

Tabbed by:legnadetrotsid
Tuning: Tune down half a step.
This is the way I play it and it sounds good to me although I don't know if it's correct.
Since I don't know how to tab out the strumming pattern I just tabbed out the chords I use.
It's not 100% accurate. I left out some hammer-ons and pull-offs and other little strums I do
during the solo because I can't exactly tab out notes. I just put the basic
pattern. But once you get
the rhythm and feel for this you can add your own shuffle.
