Tuning: Drop A - AEADF#B
 
Updated: 2022-06-08: Now that I have seen how this is played live, this is definitely in Drop A.
Dustin is playing the first 2 chords of the verse on string 5. On my s***ty baritone, I find that
the palm muting sounds great on the rooting on string 6 instread. Try it out on yours.
 
I moved Teppei's verse up the neck as well. Having a hard time making out whether
the is playing the same 4 notes at the beginning. Please let me know what you think.
 
   (I think you can omit the E note on 4, in the chord, so I will denote that in parentheses.

I think this is lower than B standard, I can hear a low A riff at 3:18 in the song. Kudos for tabbing it out though!
