--------------------------------------------------------------------------" TIME BOMB TOWN" By Mr LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM. As it appears on the "Back to The Future" sound track . -"Time Bomb Town" was the first song I ever heard by Lindsey Buckingham. It Totally freaked me out,in a most positive way and I had it in my head for Weeks. The only way to get rid of It was to transcribe it, and so I did. ENJOY!- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

4/4 | Abm(1) Ebm7 F#(1) | Abm(1) Ebm7 F#(2) |
