-=MONKEY WRENCH=- by the FOO FIGHTERS ------------ Tabs by Matthew Muscat Inglott - mif@maltanet.net NOTE !! The song is in **DROP D TUNING**! The reason why I emphasize that is because I don't want people to read the tabs, play them in normal tuning and wonder why it sounds so bad!

Mail me at mif@maltanet.net (if you don't know how to do a drop D tuning, tune the top string with the second string 7th fret rather than the 5th fret)
