Eyehategod - Story Of The Eye guitar tab
STORY OF THE EYE by EYEHATEGOD (Southern Discomfort)
TAB by: Pez story_of_the_eye@start.com.au
TUNING: C#
This is another great EHG song that's easy to learn and play.
This song originally appeared on the Ruptured Heart Theory
single but has re-appeared on the 2000 album Southern Discomfort.
This album has a weird tuning to it, sort of 20-30cent above C#.
I used C# as a go between as all their other albums seem to be
tuned in that step. Strange.
The song is played in a clean, fuzzy tone.....
