Band- Sevendust
Song- Hero
Album- Next
Tuning- Drop B(B,F#,B,E,G#,C#)
This took forever to figure out. There are so many different parts in this song that
it took forever to learn. Anyway, this is the first and best track on the record, Next.
It is probably the heaviest song on the album to next to Pieces. So, here it is, all
comments are welcome, this should be about 99% correct.
