Emotional Breakdown Chords & Tabs
Yea hows it going
This is my first tab but i figured the song was worth taking the time to
write, its off Don't Close Your Eyes and later featured in the
Byron Bay hardcore compilation, What We've Built(split EP with I Killed The Prom Queen).
The song is fairly easy in my opinion, especially for a Parkway song, but is so heavy
it sounds awesome to play and doesn't require much skill
Its in Drop B like most, probably all Parkway songs
For those who want to be pedantic, its C tuning with the C dropped to B
Key:
* - Full Mute
x - Fully Muted Strum
