Song: Secret Agent Man (McLeod/Tennent)
Band: Superjesus
Album: Jet Age
Tuning: Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
This song is the latest single released off Jet Age after Gravity. This tab is for the single/radio edit
is not the same as the album version. To play with the CD, tune your low E to D and then drop all strings
1/2 step. Listen to the CD for timing. I've basically just written out the chords which Sarah and Tim play. Play the verse clean and for everything else use distortion.

That's it. You can play the main riff at the D power chord (5th position) but you have to have fast
