This works, There's just some chord placing a little off for those who are struggling with it..... It should be D C G OH THE HEADS THAT TURN MAKE MY BACK BURN This is throughout on certain lines, hope this helps anyone who couldn't get it. And maybe this is the reason for only four stars Nice tab though, great song!!!'
