Name: Blake Carino Artist: Black Label Society Guitarist: Zakk Wylde Song : Bleed for Me Tuning: C G C F A D Before we begin, Im going to have to admit that I have commited the ultimate sin of tabbing. This tab is from Guitar World's March 2003 issue and was transcribed by Jeff Perrin. I love this band, I love Zakk's playing, and I love this song. So I wanted the real, correct version on here. Hey, at least its right.......
