  21. AC/DC - It's a Long Way To the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)
  22. Tabbed by Jason Kester <jkester@sea.ms.ch2m.com>
  23.  
  24. This is an easy song that nobody can seem to figure out how to play
  25. because it's so far out of tune.  I guess you cant really tune a
  26. bagpipe, so they had to tune to it.  Anyway, tune down a quarter step
  27. (yeah, half a fret...) and then tweak it until it sounds right.

  119. The spacing of the notes kind of reflects the timing of the song, but not
  120. very well.
