Happy Birthday (ver 2) by The Birthday Massacre
The Birthday Massacre - Happy Birthday
Album: Nothing and Nowhere; Violet
Tabbed by: MelVinMaSsaCrE
Note: The outro is just both chorus played back to back. Although this song appears on
both albums, I used Violet to transcribe it. Therefore, the time will not match up with
Nothing and Nowhere.
Tuning: Drop D (D-A-D-G, low to high)
Intro Bass begins at 0:17
