                  LOWER YOUR HEAD AND TAKE IT IN THE BODY - AFI
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By: pattyboy15@aol.com

This is one of the better songs on Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes.  Its not
that hard to play and I'm curious as to why no one tabbed it out.  Well, I took
the liberty and here's what I came up with.  Its pretty much perfect, if not
entirely.

This song can also be played with barre chords, but then you have to have kinda
fast fingers.  It sounds good either way.

*= play a few times
pm= palm mute
