--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alexisonfire- Rough Hands (Acoustic Version) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:Bryn a.k.a Stud Muffin Email: Bryn_bass@hotmail.co.uk Tuning: Original is in Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb, but it sounds fine in E, A, D, G, B, E This is NOT an official tab, just something i worked out in music class, whilst messing with a classical piece, i thought of this song, and thought it would be a great idea to play it acoustic. perfect for solo playing/maybe singing (though George's parts sang clean obviously, haha) But it took me ages to tab out, don't be too harsh, ;) Enjoy!
