Captain Crash and the Beauty Queen from Mars
from the "Crush" album by Bon Jovi
Transcribed by Darren Hickman
This is my first attempt at tabbing a song, so please let me know if you think it's wrong.
I'm pretty sure that it's in a different key but this is how I sing it.
I think it's a great song to sing unplugged too!
