Lola Montez Tabs

(ver. 1)
Volbeat
Hey, this is my tab for Lola Montez by Volbeat. I have updated it from my
previous version.
***
I have now added the majority of the lead, apart from the solo which I am
still working on.
It may look confusing, so sorry. I have put the lead and rhythm next to each
other for each section of the song.
For anyone interested, I have used the guitar played by Michael Poulsen as
rhythm, and that played by Rob Caggiano as lead. Most of this was based off
their live performance at Rock Am Ring.
***

If you are going to rate it low, at least tell me why. So I can improve it.

Standard Tuning.

The lead guitar here is very hard to tab clearly, sorry :(
Listen to the song to work out how many times you need to play
each bend before releasing.
