Love And Death: By The Way Transcribed by: mysticguitar77 YouTube Username: MysticGuitar77 Love And Death's website: http://www.loveanddeathmusic.com/ Date last modified: March 4, 2013 Tuning: Drop G# (G#,D#,G#,C#,F#,A#,D#) Notes: I play it on a 7-string, the song is actually played on a 6-string baritone. The tuning is the same though so you can play it on either one.
