Billy Talent
Bloody Nails and Broken Hearts
Billy Talent III [Bonus Track]
Here's my tab for this great song!
I'm not sure if Ian D'Sa plays it with guitar that's tuned down a half-step but I
tabbed it in normal Drop D Tuning.
The song is quiet easy to learn, only the Main Riff's rhythm is a bit tricky.
Have fun!!
