Further Seems Forever
New Year's Project - Acoustic version
Tabbed by: Lindsay Kennedy
email: testingthestrong@hotmail.com
Tuning: Eb Standard (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, eb)
Key: / = Slide up to
x (covering all strings) briefly mute/pause all strings
Both guitar tabs correspond to each other unless mentioned.
This tab is not meant to be 100% accurate to what is played on the song (although
it is closer than most tabs I have seen); its a version designed for an acoustic
duo. If you have only one guitarist, play along with Guitar 1.
If you want to play the regular version, some of Guitar 1's parts are simply
picked instead.
