NO WAY BUT THE HARD WAY - Airbourne
From the 2010 album 'NO GUTS. NO GLORY.'
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is Airbourne's first single from their new album. I know that the first chord is
of odd in this kind of music, but if I get anything different I'll update.
The solo is a little low in the mix, so it's difficult to hear, but I've tried to do my
I'd say it's probably 75% correct.
Tuning: Standard
Key of E
