Song: Nothing Else Matters (Easy Version)
Artist: Metallica (Black Album)
Tabbed By: Cole Penning (Sheasbooboo@aol.com)
I wrote this version because I had a hard time in a few parts in which you had to switch while playing both the melody and rhythm. Since there was already a part in the original version in which you required two guitars, I figured i would rewrite this whole song as a duo. I have not taken out or added much, only in a few parts in which it doesn't sound good without a vocal. This version is more for just guitar then it is for being combined with vocal/drums/bass. I also changed some notes to a different string to make it easier to read. Although you now require a partner to play it, it makes it easy on both of you. Just make sure you practice a lot, so you play in sync. Enjoy ;)
~This is also a printer friendly tab, which is why there are spaces at some wierd spots.~
