Tuning: Drop C
No solo for those looking for it. Solos are beyond my capability. Let me know if there
are any problems. I think I got all the chords and notes correct, but all the fast palm
mutes are hard to count and I ran out of time at the end and did copy and pasting which
may have left some gaps or missing parts.
