River Below - Billy Talent

Tabbed by: Andres (silvadolla) Ali

Tuning: EADGBE
I found a bunch of tabs for this song, they all were kinda shaky. I tabbed this for
tuning,
I think the band plays this song in Drop D though.
The intro might trip you up a bit at first, but practice it for a bit.

That's it you're done. I think this version sounds a hell of a lot better than other
and it's easier
to finger. I'm going to try to tab Standing in the Rain next.
Any questions, comments, or corrections, please email me at andres.ali@gmail.com. Thanks
