David Crowder Band - The Heights/cry Mercy guitar tab
These songs are close to how David plays it but it is a little different. Im not
good at showing timing either so listen to the CD to get the timing right.
The Heights: X2 X2 X3

You just repeat all of those parts over and over untill the breakdown in which you
play this:

Then you play the heights riff again untill it fades away.
