The Tomb of Gilgamesh
by Tourniquet
Guitar Tab, tabbed by Ben Wright (iaminchrist3@hotmail.com)
r = rest
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
h = hammer on
p = pull off
PM = Palm mute
tr = tremolo/trill--you'll get the idea
() = Watch! This note might not be there.
It might be a shared one, where you go to the next riff on that note,
but it's there just to show you where to go.
