“Privilege” by Incubus
As heard on the album “Make Yourself”

Tabbed by 4stringfury

A note: This is a great rockin’ tune by Incubus that isn’t terribly hard to play.  I’ve seen other people’s tabs of this and they’re mostly accurate except for one part.  On the “find yourself a backdoor” part of the song most people have the bass part as one note, but it’s actually a simple A-E-A power chord.  I never knew this until I saw Incubus play not too long ago and it was pretty cool when I saw Dirk Lance do it.  Anyway, if you think I’m hideously wrong or full of crap or would like to chat, email at funkrox@hotmail.com.  Later…
