Hi guys! in this tab I?m going to try to explain some ways to play this nice song called Drowning.

First the "original" version with Drop C# and then a standard tunning version, 
wich can be played acustic with chords

the original version is in C#m, and the standard in Em

tell me if there is a mistake plz ;)

---let?s start with the real one---

each "-" = semiquaver, so we have 16 - per compas (4/4)

m: minim
c: crotchet
q: quaver
q.: quaver with.
s: semiquaver
