Well, yet again another one of FIF's best...it took me nearly 3 1/2 hours to figure out this song so it's
immaulate. (btw in a year or so I will have a FULL album tab out for "Engine of a Million Plots")
Just to clear up any discrepancies, here is the legend:
b Bend * Palm Mute [] Tremolo Pick
x Dead Note r Release v Vibrato
~ Let Ring /\ Slide () Volume Swell
Intro (optional: play [6] and [5] on high e string for the 2nd through 7th measures)
