Benign Tabs

(ver. 1)
Oleander
Benign- Oleander
Tuning: Down a half step (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, eb)

h=hammer on   p=pull off   x=scratch   ^=bend   ~=hold note   V=vibrato   /=slide

This would be my 8th Oleander song I've tabbed. Another one, also, that could 
be played in standard, but I chose down a half step, just cause it's how Oleander 
probably plays it. This is their second single off Unwind, my ALL-TIME FAVE CD!
Go out and buy it, everyone! Oh by the way... this tab should be pretty CORRECT,
although there's lead in the chorus that I couldn't get. I know it's the intro
