Topic: Mother (A punks ballad)
Ok I did the chord pro at work and I may slightly have them in the wrong section. If you play it feel free to move them to where you feel they should be more suited. When I play the D in the verse, I am only hitting the D and G strings open and letting them ring out (like in Ain't talking bout love from Van Halen) hope you all like it. BTW this is more of a controlled angry stretched shout/rant rather than actually sung. umm PUNK LOLOL
