Buzzbomb by the Dead Kennedys
From the album «Plastic Surgery Disasters»
Tabbed by Tom Mallon ([email protected])
Most of the guitar parts in this song are a guitar figure that Ray
Moves up and down as the chord changes. The figure looks like this
In G:
E ————————————————
B ————————————————
G ————————————————
D —5-5———5-5——————————
A —5-5-6-5—-5-5-6-5—————————
E —3-3——6—3-3——6-3———————-
Just move that up and down the neck as the chord changes.
Some of the other chords, mainly in the «chorusy» section
(«Plow through rest area…») are just barre chords.
