Hey, everybody. I noticed a terrible lack of Paint It Black tabs, so I decided to make
own.
This is one of my favourite songs by one of my favourite bands.
It's my first tab, but I think it's mostly pretty good.
I'm not sure the chorus is 100% accurate, but it sounds just fine.
The rhythm in the intro and outro is kind of confusing, but if you listen to the song
can probably get it.
