Curse Of Curves Chords & Tabs
Okay, so I was preparing to record this song for my AS Music Technology, and listening
to the song compared to the existing tabs, I felt there were a few minor mistakes, so
I've tabbed this out as best I can (this is my first) and I hope you find this helpful.
This song is off the album 'The Same Old Blood Rush With A New Touch' available
from Fueled By Ramen.
Standard Tuning
Verse One:
Two guitars, left & right pan. Slight distortion. All palm muted up to last four strikes.
