PROPS GO TO: Matt

Sleep by Savatage from the album Edge of Thorns, 1993. Submitted by: Matt Every tab I've ever seen for this song has been inaccurate. This may not be completely right, but it sounds right to me. Bear with me, because this is my first tab. Hope you enjoy!

Well, there it is, a great song, and my first tab ever! hope you like it! -Matt
