Artist:  Chevelle
Song:    Still Running
Album:   The Punisher Soundtrack
Tuning:  Drop A# (A# F A# D# G C)
Author:  Mike Smith (sublime56@hotmail.com)


This is a relatively new song and I wanted to write a tab for it because
it's such a sweet song.  Pete Loeffler bares an eerie resemblance
to Maynard from Tool on this song.  Actually the whole song is kind of
"Tool-like".

Anyways, it's tuned real low so you're going to have to switch tunings.
As usual, I put what notes each string is to be tuned at.  Enjoy!
