Pressing On (ver3) Tab - Relient K






this may have some resemblance to other tabs but the other tabs are either wrong or dont
sound right. My band covers this song and its exactly the same sound as these tabs.
*Note: I saw Relient K twice in concert and they tune differently so that the fingerings
are easier but these tabs are easy enough. Rhythms aren't written out but by listening
to the song and looking at the tabs you'll get it right!

tabbed by: Splinter of the Cross

Standard Tuning (Dropped D if your lazy)
~  = Palm Mute
/  = Slide
*  = Let Ring
(#)= Alternate fingering

Well thats it the end.
* Note: this is how my band plays it and it sounds the same so we don't really know
if its the right tabs but nothing else is closer than these tabs and nothing else sounds
the same as these tabs except the origianl Relient K tabs.
