Reinvention Chords & Tabs
Song - Reinvention (Re-Recorded)
Band - As I Lay Dying
Album - A Long March: The First Recordings
This is a beast song and i got bored so i tabbed it, just to see if i could.
And it turns out that it's easier than it sounds. So if you don't agree
with something or you just have some constructive critisizesm or something,
just let me know. But it shoud be pretty close.

Sorry if this was really confusing like this was my 1st tab and like this was a big song to tackle so uh yeah.
But you will get it once you play it.
The most confusing part is the Guitar 2 and 3 parts and when they fuse together and stuff.
PS: If you like As I Lay Dying and like Hardcore/Metalcore you will most definitly like Darkest Hour, Himsa, and The Black Dahlia Muder
they are all freaking beast and are great live bands. Definitly check them out, they are worth your time.
