Blink-182 Adam's Song

Track: Adams Song Band: Blink182 Drummer: Travis Barker Album: Enema of the State Timing: 4/4 BPM (beats per minute): 132 Transcribed by: spikedLIKEtravis Comments: I know this tab is 100% correct, because i got it from Modern Drummer :) There are already many tabs for this song out, but ive tried all of them before, and looking the tab from modern drummer...well, lets just say that most of the tabs were off by quite a bit. Such as forgetting the Splash, China, triplets, and ect.. They weren't totally off, the main beat was still there and when you played it it still sounded fine. But here is the 100% ABSOLUTE CORRECT NO ERROR TAB OF ADAMS SONG. -key- Rm=Rim of Snare 3 means triplet! The 3 will be placed in the line above, and its always over the middle note "how to read tabs")

If you think this is wrong, i think you can shove your computer up your...anyway, if you wish to have it in regular drum music rather than tabs, (which are more accurate - http://www.easyzic.com/partitions-tablatures/partition-blink-182,a58.html Page 2/3 Blink-182 Adam's Song triplets and 1 1/2 beat notes are near impossible to display in a tab) go buy the August 2001 Issue of Modern Drummer-it has Travis on the cover mail comments to [email protected] PLEASE rate this tab is you use it! payce
