G'day firstly this song Rocks.
This is the first song off "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulance",its
quite an epic of a song so I've only tabbed the intro so far,but it goes for about as
long as as a normal song so it should keep you goin for a while. Petrucci or Myung not
sure who plays the intro ,but it is played on a bass and the other parts are played on
a seven-string electric I dont have one of those so I've tabbed it out for two
six-string gtr's.Hope its not too complicated.Enjoy! and please rate my tab.
