Hellbound by The Living End
Tabbed by blamft (blamft@hotmail.com)
I`ve had this tab kicking around for a few years now, it was the first Hellbound tab in existence for awhile. Then TLE got famous and suddenly everyone was tabbing their songs. But I`m not bitter or anything. Mick Fryar actually used some of this tab in his version (including the solo), but i still think this is the better tab.
Enjoy.

aw hell, you figure out the rest of this. i`m bored.
Finish with verse riffs, then chorus riffs, then a slowed down Verse Riff 1, followed by an upstroked open Em chord, and then just the open E(low) string.
