Eyes Wide Open Chords & Tabs
Eyes Wide Open (from the album Happy With What You Have to be Happy With)
by: King Crimson
tablature by: Isaac Yoho (metalmaster1999)
This is my first tab and I am almost completely sure it's 100% correct.
There are two guitars playing over each other and the layering is quite
advanced. It won't sound correct if you play it without the other layer, so
either find another guitarist to harmonize with or just play over the song.
One last thing, the timing is weird in some places, so you need to listen to
the song to get it right. It was very hard to do this by ear, so please rate
it well and take it easy on the comments.
