Title: So You Wanna Be A Rock N Roll Star
Album: Live (11/28/03)
Transcribed by: Rick
Written For: http://www.giventowail.com
This song is just structured around G and A chords so it's unnecessary to tab out
every variation that one of the many guitarists on stage at the time may have been
playing.
I tried to capture as much as each solo as I could as well. Under each solo it's
just G and A for the chords.
