Album: Weathered Tuning: DADADD (low to high) Transcribed by: Philipp Str?ller & Adam Strachn Email: PStroeller@gmx.de & Creedoholic@hotmail.com Philipp and I both worked on this GREAT song. I have two versions of it. The second version is below this one. Notes: Intro/Verse – There is a weird effect going on here. Delay or reverb? Pre-Chorus/Chorus – Octave chords. Listen to song to get it right! Interlude – clean but palm mute it! Bridge – palm mute the open chords. Other – Just follow the song.
