Title: What A Shame
Artist: Shinedown
Album: The Sound Of Madness

Wasn't happy with the other versions out there, so I decided to give it a shot myself. 
This might (or might not) be the way it is played, but it sounds good when played 
along to the record version. 
Feel free to comment if you see (or hear) any mistakes.

Oh, and thanks to 365_days_gone for his (her?) Guitar Pro version that made my work much easier.

Tuned a half-step down

             AIf (x02220@1)there was nothing wrong,
