Biography:
Charles Milles Manson (né Maddox, November 12, 1934 – November 19, 2017) was an American criminal and cult leader. In the late 1960s, he formed what became known as the Manson Family, a quasi-commune in California. Manson's followers committed a series of nine murders at four locations in July and August 1969. In 1971 he was convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder for the deaths of seven people, including the actress Sharon Tate, all of which were carried out at his instruction by members of the group.

Artist: Charles Manson
Song: Big Iron Door (Clang Bang Clang)
Tabbed by: neuroxik
E-mail: neuroxik [-at] gmail [dot-] com
Tuning: Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb (Tune down half A step)
Chord Names: Chord names relative to fret position
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES:
>> IMPORTANT: Because the chords vary a lot, like Bm without the small string
then Bm WITH the small string, instead of having a load of chord names
at the beginning I tabbed them throughout to make it easier to play
along. BUT, the tabs --DO NOT REFLECT-- the strumming pattern, they're
just there as a guide.
>> T = Thumb, when written under tab
>> Yes, Em7M (0654xx) sounds dissonant, as does when he recorded it, which
give it more character. I'm only noting it in case people ask "Are you
sure?"
>> Because Eb7 is played with the 6th fret on 5th string at some places and
others not, I took the freedom to name it Eb7[2] where that note is
not played to make it easier to visualize.
