guitar tabs lyrics
Tabbed by: Aniket Patni
Email: [email protected]
Tuning: Drop A# Tuning (A#FA#D#GC) [Drop C tuned down 1 step]
Entire song is tabbed by ear, and done myself.
I Have pretty much done one guitars parts, or what the lead guitar would play at most
of the song.
Ive tried to do it as perfectly as i can, but i might have stupid mistakes,
so if anyone has any corrections or wants to add to any part of the song,
please email me.
Im Very bad at tabbing so if you could not understand, im sorry, and please
let me know.
If Anyone converts this to GP, Awesome! but please credit me as well.
Intro : [Main Riff]
This part has the lead played on keyboards, but i'm doing it such that one guitar would
it

This Riff is played both at the intro and at choruses in the following manner:
MAIN RIFF = Riff 1X2 - Riff 2 - Riff 1
if you have a keyboardist, then the keyboardist can play the exact same scale without
bass notes
while guitars will play only the bass notes (all notes on low A# string) according to
song.
