Higher
Written and performed by Creed
From the album "Human Clay"
Transcribed by Halfdan Baadsvik (halfdan@eskobar.nu)
I've updated my previous tab with a few corrections and
I've included a tab explenation (some people don't under-
stand my tabs).
Thanks to Lars Havro for some help.
Tune to drop D (low to high DADGBe).
