----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Metalingus - Alter Bridge ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Matt Email: the_nxt_portnoy@comcast.net Tuning: D tuning lowered half step (Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) Spent a good while with this, my first tab, pretty sure its whats on the album. I am however mainly a drummer and had no hope in tabbing the overdubbed guitar parts. Enjoy and let me know what you think.
