Band: Candlemass
Hey guys, this is my tab for this song, and I think it sounds pretty good. All
of the rhythm parts are in here, but I didn't tab out the solo. Hopefully
everything here is accurate, and that you guys find it to be helpful! If you
have any comments, questions, or corrections to point out, please feel free
to leave a message here, or to send me an email! :D

[Note: the chords in the parentheses are
somewhat faint, and a little hard to hear
in the song. I consider them to be "optional",
and don't always play them.]
