Random Analysis Tabs

(ver. 1)
Devin Townsend

Performed By: The Devin Townsend Band (AKA Devin Townsend)
Lyrics & Music Written By: Devin Townsend

My first attempt at a Devy song.
I plan on tabbing this entire album, so stay tuned.
Comments, Questions, Suggestions, Requests welcome


Drop-C Tuning (C G C F A d) Low to High


Intro (0:00):
(Note: This can be played with or without the D string.
       I've tabbed it with the D string used however,
       as I feel it gives a better sound to the song)
