B|----| BURY OUR FRIENDS - Sleater-Kinney----
G|-----------------------------------------|

Tabbed by: Cate

Tuning: standard

I'm pretty sure I combined guitars here
but I think it's mostly Carrie Brownstein's 
part (I'm also assuming Corin still plays rhythm). 
Let me know in the comments if you have 
corrections/suggestions. :D

*I'm not sure if these are played as part of a chord 
or if it's both guitars but you could either play 
both notes together or if not, the prominent note to 
me is A9.
