Due to the helpful advice of one of the readers on this Newsgroup, I have
	figured out what I HOPE to be the correct way to play "Black Flag"
	by King's X.  Note the "E" is tuned down to "D" (helpful advice).

E|—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————|

                                      ^                 ^

E|———————————————————————————————————————————||  This is for the beginning of the song and the refrain.
B|———————————————————————————————————————————||  What follows is the variation used for the lyrical
G|—————————0—————0———————————————————————————||  section of the song.  Refer to the "^"'s above.
D|———————0—————0———||  G|———————0————————————||

...and now, the tab for the lead—in to the refrain.

I hope that this is right, and that my new TAB notation is legible.  I think
	that it's a good system, because it allows for tuned—down or —up
	strings, bends, and other things.  Let me know what you think.

P.S.— If you know King's X, a heavy, wooden, bass—laden guitar sound should
	sound best with this song.  Bon guitar—age!
