Black Label Society

Black Label Society - Like A Bird guitar tab

*Standard Tuning

*Listen to record for exact timing

*Alrighty, this tab is (I think) correct for the most part. It's a ***ing awesome

song, Zakk Wylde once again proves that not only can he shred those harmonics,

but he also knows when and how to mellow it out and write a badass acoustic song.

*KEY --

d = down-stroke

u = up-stroke

h = hammer on

p = pull off

/ = slide up

\ = slide down

. = palm mute

x = mute

() = ghost note
