Band: Hope of the States
Song: The Black Amnesias
Tabbed by: Matti Gardner
* = rest/lift finger.
\ = slide off.
Listen for exact rhythm.
N.B. I have included the muted sounds in the 'chorus' sections. They do exists, though how
intentional they are I do not know. It'd be just as good with continuous semiquavers, but
I'm a pedant and try and get it exact. Each part is different, excpet the verse. That's why
it's a long tab.
