Song: Daredevil by The Tragically Hip
Tabbed by: Jerry Ingersoll
Questions, comments send to
Gtr 1 is tuned to EBF#DBF#, Gtr 2 capo 2nd fret.
This tab isn't all that complicated, but keep in mind
that "2" represents a capoed open string on 2nd and
3rd guitars. This song is fairly repetitive, so
(provided you have the right tuning) you should find
it easy once you figure out the pattern.
