Swim For Your Lives Chords & Tabs
The hardest song on "No Rain, No Rainbow" probably, JUST because of the last 30 seconds
so. It's pretty much constant sweep picking and it's very fast... at least for me. So,
this is an advanced tab. But it's an extremely kickass song that NEEDS to be longer...
it's not, so oh well. Here it is =] RATE AND COMMENT!!
