x---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear God ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's the complete solo to Dear God. I always do my best to write the tabs out as easy and simple to read as possible but this solo has A LOT of bends/ect so I put the times in which i hope makes it easier to follow along with. It's all correct it will just take some work to learn and get down so Good luck and I appreciate all comments/ratings!
