Hard Act To Follow
**Tune Down Half Step**
A lot of power chords used so shouldn't be too hard to learn.

~    =  vibrato (shake note as if with whammy bar)
+    =  bend for appropiate pitchshifts
h    =  hammer on following note then release back to original
x    =  muffling (mute strings with pick hand when striking)
/    =  slide fret fingers to next  note
