Motorcycle Emptiness (Cifras)

MotorCycle Emptiness-Manic Street Preachers

I have made this tab from several others. It may be out on some parts but
it should all fit in somewhere. Thanks to Cormac ward for the outro+solo.

Chords:-
E-022100(or x7999x)
B-799877(but idealy you should play B/D#-the bass player playing the D#(fret
6 A string) or you could play x7666x, it sounds better with a bass player)
C#m-x46644
A-x02220(or 577655)
C-x32010(or x3555x or 8(10)(10)988
D-xx232 (or x5777)
G-3x0033 (or 355433)
