I AM GHOST - SO I GUESS THIS IS GOODBYE
TABBED BY GEORGE WILLIAMS
DROPPED D TUNING (DADBGE)
right ok.. well i heard this song on their myspace, and seeing as there
aren't any tabs for the new album, I thought i'd start it off. this isn't
perfect, although it's damn close, but i worked it out over lunch using
only a tiny, crappy speaker and their myspace mp3. It's the best i could
do with what I had. i'll buy the album soon, and tab it up properly.
but for now, here you go. oh and don't worry, i tabbed the solo..
