I Appear Missing Chords & Tabs

I Appear Missing - Queens Of The Stone Age
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: LeFlo
Tuning: Standard EADGBe
Nice overdrive, reverb, neck pickup. Take care to have a similar sound on
Guitar 1 and 2, which will give the desired cutting "choir-y" effect during the chorus.
!! 8th note Shuffle feel !!
Please watch my cover for more explicit timing, rhythm, etc.

of the song.
