I Appear Missing - Queens Of The Stone Age
Tabbed by: LeFlo
Tuning: Standard EADGBe
Nice overdrive, reverb, neck pickup. Take care to have a similar sound on
Guitar 1 and 2, which will give the desired cutting "choir-y" effect during the chorus.
!! 8th note Shuffle feel !!
Please watch my cover for more explicit timing, rhythm, etc.

Only covers the 3-minute album version. Check out other tabs for the second part
of the song.

GUITAR 2 (Troy Van Leeuwen)
Guitar Intro: Actually Troy only plays this from Verse 2. But you could also play
it right from the beginning
if there is no keyboard to play the higher-pitched riff.
