Comments:
1.My suggestion for the guitar chords from this song:
E G(5) D(5) A(5)
e[x] e[x] e[x] e[x]
b[0] b[x] b[x] b[x]
g[1] g[x] g[2] g[2]
d[2] d[5] d[0] d[2]
a[2] a[5] a[0] a[0]
a[0] e[3] e[x] e[x]
2. I did the Solo just like it sounds to me, it may be not 100% right.
3. Actually most of the tabs below are for violin.
