Chords

From 'Core' Album (one of my all-time favorites!) tabbed by jjhand, with some of the riffs from 'AIC STP 10' This song is awesome, and the bridge is all jazz chords, making it very cool sounding. The guitar was multi-tracked on the CD, so I wrote out the rhythm and Lead parts. Enjoy and rate! [Intro]
(2 Guitars): Rhythm holds the last D chord, Lead plays high strings
