HIM
"Close to the Flame" (Acoustic)
(Updated Solo)
I just got this cd yesterday and this song is the one that stood out for me. The other
tabs were correct but I thought I would post the picking part during the verse and so on.
I tried to line the lyrics up but I don't think I did a very good job. Please leave good
rating. Thanks!
Intro:
(V)= smooth downstroke
note:chorus is same as intro
