Crown of Thorns
For Today
I basically tried to put this together as fast as humanly possible, so don’t
expect everything to look all fancy like usual. But of course, I promise that
the notation is spot on! FYI, For Today, doesn't use a Verse, Chorus,
structure, but I will use Verse, Chorus, etc. to label the sections, for the
readers sake.
Tuning: Drop B (B, F#, B, E, G#, C#)
3/4 times, about 110 BPM.
Intro:
Lead 1

|-0-----0-----8-----7------7-7-7-| x2

We Crown Him: The rhythm’s pretty straight forward.
