JULY - The Almost
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
E-mail: a7xlucas@live.com
Tuning: Drop D (DADGBe)
From their 2009 album Monster Monster. Note that the number of times each chord is played may be off, but
it will guide you well enough. I tried lining up the guitar parts properly so they correspond to
each other but it isn't always the case. Anyway hope this helps!
My guitar cover will be on YouTube shortly!
/ or - slide to and from a note
* - palm mute
. - release (stop) note from ringing out after playing it
p - pull-off
~ - hold note
