Scissors - Sworn In
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: killpolgreenan

Tuning: Drop C# (one octave down)
This is a very rough and simplified version but i hope it would be good enough. this is my first tab and
despite the tuning and all the scratching/ mixing effects in the original song it's actually pretty simple.
To get to that tuning i use a digitech whammy pedal and set it an octave down, but obviously you can use any
detune pedal.
feel free to e-mail me if you can suggest any changes. if this goes well i plan to tab out the rest of the
lovers/the devil eventually and alot off of the death card. please give feedback and i apoligise for any
mistakes!
