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

THURSDAY - WAR ALL THE TIME

tuning: Dropped D
Here's another fantastic song off of Thursday's breathtaking new album, War All the Time.
This is a surprisingly soft song, and my favorite. I also did this on one guitar,
because both parts are kind of murky, and it's hard to spot Guitar 2's role, though
there is one part on the Outro that is clear, and which I did tab. Enjoy.
* = Harmonics
/ = slide
h = Hammer om
