By My Side - Copeland - Eat. Sleep. Repeat.

Tabbed by: JebX
Tuning: Standard
They're all great, but this song off the new album is excellent, as you must surely know
now. Note that there are 5 guitar tracks on this song; guitars 2 and 4 can be combined
will sound decent for live playing. You're probably wondering where "Gtr.1" got to. In
very beginning of the song, you can hear an acoustic strumming an A flat minor. I
assume it goes on, but that's all I really trust my ear to pick out (very thick mix), so
you want a tab with them in it, best of luck writing one!

Repeat chorus, listen to the end carefully (not hard, repeats parts you already learned)
Obviously, there are several different ways to play the rhythm part that sound the same.
