Papas Got A Brand New Bag - James Brown
00:00 / 00:00
Tabs and lyrics
Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
James Brown
Papa's Got A Brand New Bag

I don't know the tuning but I think its a bit higher than
standard, but here it is.

Notes: -Through out the entire song the chords are played
one at a time and then a pause, so it is
chord-pause-chord-pause and so on. The only part
that isn't is the end part of the verse.
-Also all of the chords in the first part of the
verse are "Fret Hand Muted"
For Beginning Guitarists, Basically right after you
play the chord just lift your fingers off the fret
just enough to stop the note vibration.
