GODSMACK - "awake2" Tablature

Official GODSMACK Tablature & Sheet Music »

OK -- I get alot of info off of this web site so now i guess its time
I give something back. It's not often when i sit down to figure out
a song but i know its a pain to do, so Here it is -- To the best of
my knowledge this is 100% correct. This song is just as easy as any
other Godsmack tune (Except Bad Religion -- that one is REALLY easy).

Drop D tuning, tuned down one whole step
low to high C G C F A D
INTRO :
Guitar one

listen to the song to hear the rythyms and the rests.
