Fat Bottomed Girls Words and music by Brian May Chords transcribed by Roy Truelove (roy@liii.com) TABs transcribed by Pinter Denes Tune the guitar to a dropped D (DADGBE) Most of the song is played on the D chord. The rhythm is more than difficult. This TAB describes it direct. * shows the bassdrum beats. I can only recommend you to listen to the song about thousand times. Or you should play a simplified version. Vocal intro arr for guitar (stupid idea I know, but...)
