From: mike@honet7.att.com

Someone requested the bass tab to Badge a while ago, and I finally got
around to typing it in.  I've also added the words and the chords,
which might make the tab kind of hard to read.  I'm not sure that this
format is useful, so if anyone wants just the tab, you can let me
know, and I'll mail off a copy.

This file has lines that are longer than 80 characters, so they wrap
on the screen.  However, when printed out (at least on my printer),
they don't wrap.  I also have a copy of this with lines less than 80
columns, so I can mail that out as well.  (You can tell I had a busy
day at work yesterday :-)
