Tabbed by: Karleen Heong

Tuning: Drop D tuning
So: 6th(lowest)=D 5th=A 4th=D 3rd=G 2nd=B 1st(highest)=E
This is the exact version of Heart Shaped Box played on the Going Under
Single by Evanescence (track 3).It's tabbed for acoustic, like on the
single. This song was originally written by Nirvana, but I'm tabbing
the Evanescence version, because I couldn't find it elsewhere, plus it
sounds good.

The Order:
Intro
Verse 1
Chorus
Verse 2
Chorus
End chord
Yep, I've checked it a hundred times and it's as close as possible.
I think there are snippets of a second guitar playing at the end of
each chorus and verse, but this tabbed version is for one guitar, and
I'm sure this is perfect.
