Flogging Molly - Every Dog Has Its Day

Відключити рекламу
Top o' the morning to ye! This is my first tab I've submitted; it's a
ridiculously simple song by the greatest, most high-energy band ever. As such,
it must be played furiously (except for a few parts for contrast) with lightning
quick down-up strumming. I'll add a few notes on dynamics, but this is quite a
simple song. Enjoy it!

That's the whole song. Ideally you'd have drums, fiddle, and mandolin to fill
out the sound a bit, but this is a wonderful song as it is. Remember to pick up
the pace for the ending choruses, and have fun with it!
