                          WRONG 'EM BOYO - The Clash
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Transcribed by El Guapo (john escalante)  jescala@earthlink.net

One of my favs from London Calling, Intro. has the hammond organ
sound and the rest is play with a "ska" guitar(plenty of
upstrokes and left hand mutes). There's not a lot of changes with the
guitar, it's the walking bass line and the organ that really makes the
sound


The intro is play on "big hammond" notes not chords
E               D
Stagger Lee met Billy and
      C             D
they got down to gambling
E
Stagger Lee throwed seven
D                         C
Billy said that he throwed eight

    E                D                    C            D
So  Billy said, "hey stagger! I'm gonna make my big attack
E                           D             C
I'm gonna have to leave my knife in your back

Start all over again!
