Behind Those Eyes Chords & Tabs
3 Doors Down: Seventeen Days - Track 7 - Behind Those Eyes
What?! No tabs for this song anywhere online? Well here's what I believe to be the
first attempt at tabbing this out. Any comments or corrections are welcome. The only
part I haven't got is the guitar solo and improvised fills for the second guitar.
It's been a while since I posted a tab but here one is.
Please rate this tab =D
Also, why not check out my band's site while youre here:

CHORUS
BOTH GUITARS - DISTORTION
0:53
I'm pretty sure this is accurate but its possible they may be playing in Drop-D to put
power behind the D power chord.
