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 --
