WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Metallica - Dirty Window Tabs | Ver. 3
Here are the tabs to the new Metallica song Dirty Window.
These are the correct tabs! Meaning how Metallica plays it.
It's a bit hard to convey timing in tablature, but I did
my best. The song is in 4/4. the main riff is 2 dotted
8th notes followed by an 8th note (in case this helps
anyone out there). Just listen to the song for the timing.
Rock on!
