Sevendust - Nobody Wants It Tabs

Sevendust: Nobody Wants It




Tuning: Altered Drop B (B,F#,B,E,F#,B)

Tuning note: This song you can just play in regular Drop B (B,F#,B,E,G#,C#)
             since the 1st and 2nd strings aren't used (at least in the way
             I tab it), however, to keep it consistent with how the other
             songs off this album are tuned, the notation will read with the
             altered tuning. Again, you can just tune to regular Drop B if
             you wish, it doesn't matter for this song.
