A Town Called Malice by The Jam.
Tabbed By Brook Jackson
When You're playing the B chord, you need to hammer on the C note at the end of the bar,
if played from the 1st position is the G string on the 6th fret or if you play it
at the 7th fret, it will be the D string at the 11th fret.
It sounds best if you play with a capo on the 2nd fret, play all chords as normal except
E, play the D chord, Capo 2 makes an E.
