Famous Last Words

Year: 2006 - Album: The Black Parade

Written by Frank Iero, Gerard Arthur Way, Matt Pelissier, Michael James Way, Raymond Toro, Robert C Bryar

	  		Song Title: Famous Last Words  
Album: The Black Parade  
Track No.: 13  
Band: My Chemical Romance  
Tabbed by: f1f2  
Email: ???  

This is the studio version of the song. I got it from...  

Tuning: Standard (all guitars)  

Ins.:  
Gtr 1 – Frank Iero (right speaker)  
Gtr 2 – Ray Toro (left speaker)  

(I’m not sure on Gtr 2 because I think it’s in Drop D because in the Chorus  
it seems to play the lower D chord other than the higher one. Well, we’ll  
just see on how Ray plays it live on the future.)
