WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Alkaline Trio - Death Bed Tabs | Ver. 2
Notes:
I figured this all out and it should be right. It's better than the other
"Death Bed" tab...haha. Anway, this should be complete with the exception
of the 2nd lead in the bridge. I'm not sure if it's totally correct but
it's hard to hear anyway, so it sounds ok without it.
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Intro (Song starts with 2 guitars with feedback)

Theres some kind of lead here, kinda hard to hear but it follows the bass line
