Where the River Goes
Stone Temple Pilots
Core
Standard Tuning
Tabbed by: chronic_stp
This is my first STP tab I have learned by ear. They are my favorite band and most of
songs have already been tabbed. Most of them have been tabbed by jjhand, and he did a
good job with them. This tab is probably not anywhere near correct but this is how I play it.
Like most songs on the "Core" album, Dean uses a lot of natural harmonics.
He uses them at the end of each bar on the chorus, I just can't figure them
out.
