Alter Bridge - Calm The Fire (Fortress)
The guitars are tuned half step down
The acoustic beginning I tried very hard but couldn't figure it out. I play like
this and it works fine to me.
Calm the fire

Something good and something beautiful if only we could see
That now more than ever what we need
Is a little love
