MANILLA ROAD – NECROPOLIS
FROM THE ALBUM “CRYSTAL LOGIC”

Tabber’s note (read this) - I just wrote the chords down, so, you’re going to have to
figure out the rhythm, because I’m not entirely sure of it, and furthermore, I don’t
even know how to properly tab out rhythms. Also, I didn’t add the solo, this is because
I do not have nearly enough guitarist skillz to figure it out, so I’d suggest adlibbing
a solo, or making up your own. Furthermore, I think Mark Shelton’s guitar is in a dropped
tuning. If you know this, perhaps you could send it to me and tell me what the tuning is.
Finally, I don’t entirely know what I’m supposed to write here, before the actual tabs,
so I would appreciate it if you followed all rules generally associated with tabs. Thank
you, and now for the tabs…
