Here I Stand Chords & Tabs
Madina Lake - Here I Stand ('The Disappearance Of Adalia' EP Version)
Transcribed and tabbed by: punk man dude
This is a new song from the band Madina Lake (Formerly The Blank Theory and Reforma) and
fun to play, so here ya go!
NOTES: The lyrics appear above each measure to signify where in the song it is, not below.
The only time I tabbed a second guitar is when the riffs are different. So if two
play the same riff at one time, I can't tell. :)
Tuning: Drop C (C, G, C, F, A, D) Low to high
Legend:
~ = Let Ring
h = Hammer-on
p = Pull-off
. = Palm Mute
* = Pay attention to this, there's a note about it a couple measures underneath.
