#Them Kids
#
#By: Sam Roberts Band
#
#Album: Them Kids(2008)
#Tabbed By: wolfendenc
#
#Notes: This is a basic version of the song. Some of the lyrics were a little difficult
#decipher, so I apologize for the mistakes. Guitar #2 jams higher on the guitar during
#of the parts. The G chord is on the 10th fret and the C chord is in the same
#as a regular D chord, but played on the 12th fret.
#Great tune by a great band.
