Ashala Rock Chords & Tabs
The Early November
Ashala Rock
Tuning: Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
The other tabs for this song are good, but they're not
really specific, this is how my band does it.
It's a little different, but it's the basic structure of the song.
Intro: For the intro one guitar does harmonics
and the other one goes between two chords.

then the 4th time do the rhythm again

So there you have it
it's pretty much exact with
some difference in the voicings.
You can mess with whatever you see fit,
but give that a shot.
Have Fun,
