Due to the helpful advice of one of the readers on this Newsgroup, I have
figured out what I HOPE to be the correct way to play "Black Flag"
by King's X. Note the "E" is tuned down to "D" (helpful advice).
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------3---3--------0--------3---3--------0-0x-3x-1x-0---3---3--------0-|
A|--------3---2--------0--------3---2--------0-0x-3x-1x-0---3---2--------0-|
D|-0-3/-0-3-0---0-3/-0---0-3/-0-3-0---0-3/-0---0x-3x-1x-0-0-3-0---0-3/-0---|
^ ^
E|-------------------------------------------|| This is for the beginning of the song and the refrain.
B|-------------------------------------------|| What follows is the variation used for the lyrical
G|---------0-----0---------------------------|| section of the song. Refer to the "^"'s above.
D|-------0-----0---|| G|-------0------------||
A|-----------------|| D|-----0---0----------||
D|-0-2-3-----1-----|| A|--------------------||
D|-0-3-------0-1~-0---||

...and now, the tab for the lead-in to the refrain.
E|---------------------------------------------------------------||

D|---3-3-0-3/5-5---3-3-0-3/-0---0-12-11-10-8-3-3-0-3/5-5---0-3-1-||
...and finally, the tab for the "It's... what's up... with ME..." part...
E|-------------------------------------------||

I hope that this is right, and that my new TAB notation is legible. I think
that it's a good system, because it allows for tuned-down or -up
strings, bends, and other things. Let me know what you think.

P.S.- If you know King's X, a heavy, wooden, bass-laden guitar sound should
sound best with this song. Bon guitar-age!
