Biography:
Queen is an English rock band originally consisting of four members: vocalist and pianist Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, bass guitarist John Deacon, and drummer Roger Taylor.
The band formed in London in 1970 after May and Taylor's former band Smile split after having released an album and single. Freddie replaced lead vocalist Tim Staffell, after the latter's departure from the original trio.
There was much deliberation as to what the band's name would be.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Soo, this is my first tab and I hope you like it!
This complete tab is copied from Marty Music *https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmnlTWVJysjWPFiZhQ5uudg
I found this video of him teaching Bohemian Rhapsody from Queen, very, very useful and I really loved the way
he made the song really easy for the guitar.
This the way Marty teaches the song on Youtube. Because he doesn't use tabs, I made it for you.
In the video he only teaches the first part of the song, so the opera section,
Rock and the Ballad style outro are not included.
I really recommend to watch the video, and now you can use this tab beside it :D
