Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb

Best played half a step down - (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-eb) I like to play the intro riff, but the chords below will cover it. If you play the intro riff then play the open notes on the D string instead of the E string because Tremonti plays the riff in drop D. [Intro] Fm – A – Dm [Verse 1]

^DmNever mind the ^C#mcost ^A#On this beaten path I'm lo^Ast ^DmBetrayed all sense of se^Alf ^A#Ruin knows me all too we^All ^CI cast this li^A#ght into oblivion^Dm ^CShadows cast for miles as it^A# falls
