This is a great song by a neglected band, which is amazing because half of the band went
to become nevermore, which is some great music.
(Note: Jeff Loomis didn't write this, so it's on a six string)
NOTE!!!!!!: This is actually in normal C#, but they don't have that option. Just pretend.
\ = slide
^ = pinch harmonic
* = palm mute
~ = vibrato (this guy uses wide vibrato)

Solo is a work of art but I'm not really good at that sort of thing.
