Alright, this is my first tab being uploaded.
If you guys want more, I have quite a few songs tabbed in guitar pro.

This really isn't a hard song. The sweeping might be challenging at first but just 
keep trying, you'll get it!
It also helps to have a mastery of pinch harmonics.

They play on a seven string, tuning 7=A 6=E 5=A 4=D 3=G 2=B 1=e,
but I'm broke :( so if you're like me, and own only six strings, say hello to your tab!

Tuning: 6=A 5=E 4=A 3=D 2=F# 1=B

Song: Cheyne Stokes
Album: Desolation of Eden
Artist: Chelsea Grin
Length: 2:50

Tabbed by Fritz Lueck (Fritztafer), Seattle WA
