Arco Arena by Cake
From Comfort Eagle

Standard Tuning - Written for 1 guitar, but playable with 2 :)!


Its a pretty easy song to play, but it sounds awesome. Of course, if you have
two guitars, use distortion on one to play its corresponding parts.. and I'm
sure you can figure out when to play what if you have two guitars going at it.

There are some parts of the electric guitar that I neglected to tab out because it
plays during the acoustic (mainly in the middle of the song when the first riff
plays through again).

All riffs play smoothely into one another.. don't hesitate
