Artist: Tremonti
Song: 'Tore My Heart Out', from 'Dust' Album
Tuning: Drop Bb (Bb F Bb Eb G C), 2 guitars
Tabbed by: jjhand
Nice melodic song by Mark off of Dust with some nice heavy riffs. He played several songs
previously in Drop B, but guitars are tuned down an extra fret this time. I looked at using
the Bb tuning common to his Alter Bridge work but the Intro would not play well. Solo is
really good and not too difficult this time. Please rate or comment.

Lyrics:
"Looking back who do you love
find what's taken, what is lost
Gain your courage only when
we all face the world again"
"Go and find, find the one
who defies all that was
going back we reach again
Reach inside or reach the end"
Play Prechorus, but add an extra low Bb at the end (an extra beat is added the 2nd time)
