I had to add "perfect" becuase there are already too many versions for the song.
I noticed some things about the other Unholy Confession tabs:
-The pull-offs are the way to play it in the beginning, not switching strings (from seeing them live and it sounds better to me, but that's just my opinion)
-There were no 2nd guitar parts in Verse 1 or the Interlude so I found them out also
Anything under Guitar 1 is in the Left channel, and Guitar 2 is in the right channel
That's my way of playing the Intro. But I really want people to pay attention to the 2nd Guitar parts. Please Rate Good
don't forget: Drop D Tuning!
