Artist: Porcupine Tree Song: Heart Attack In A Layby Album: In Absentia (2002) Disclaimer: This tab does not use the tuning that can be seen being used in the live version. This tab is in standard tuning (while I figure out the song properly) and so will not sound 100% accurate. Guitar 1 (E A D G B e) - 'Steven Wilson - Clean' Guitar 2 (E A D G B e) - 'Steven Wilson - Acoustic (Left Channel)' Guitar 3 (E A D G B e) - 'Steven Wilson - Acoustic (Right Channel)'
