This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

"Beyond the Gray Sky"

Artist: 311

Album: Evolver

Tabbed By: Shakes

Great song, from the sweet verses to the kickass chorus, this is one of 311's best I think.

Tuning: Standard

~ - vibrato

/ - slide up

\ - slide down

p - pulloff

h - hammer-on

^ - bend (amount)

r - reverse bend

Mahoney puts on some kind of effects for the intro and verses, I'm not too

good at figuring them out, but I'd say it's a voicer with some reverb on there for good measure.
