Artist: Placebo
Album: Without You I'm Nothing
Title: Burger Queen
Tabbed by: "Dora D" (seeking_dora@yahoo.com)
Here's Placebo's "Burger Queen" in standard tuning. Note that you must
place a capo on first fret, and all fret numbers in the tab do not account
for this (i.e. --1-- is played as open string because of the capo, and there
are no 0s (zeros) in the tab).
