Official DREAM THEATER Tablature & Sheet Music »

Dream Theater "Burning My Soul"
of the album "Falling into Infinity"

Transcribed by Bernardo Borghetti - borghetti@netgo.com.br
"4-stringed" by Christian Andolf - christian.andolf@home.se

4-string bass
Tuning: Drop-D (tune down lowest string one step)

Altough this song can be played on a 4-string, it is recommended that you play
it with 5 or 6-string since Dream Theaters songs are played mostly with one of
those two so that you'll get used to them if you aren't already.
