Apathy Is A Deathwish - Story of the Year
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kai Jones
Tuning:C#,G#,C#,F#,A#,D#
I decided to go ahead and tab this song since no one here has done it completely. This
is how I play it. This is my first tab posting, so I hope you like it! If there are any
discrepancies in the tab message me the part and I'll try to fix it.
