Tabbed by: Anasky

Tuning: Drop C
Hello guys, I decided to try tapping Black Veil Brides newest song "Faithless". It may
not be accurate
because i tried to tap it from Jake Pitts' lesson on Youtube (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZNdYQ1GWIE )
Any corrections and suggestions to another tab is greatly appreciated!
I would suggest that you click the Youtube link above and try to play along with Jake,
otherwise it can seem
pretty chaotic.
ENJOY!
