Arise
By: Flyleaf
From: Memento Mori
Tabbed by Scott C
Drop D Tuning: D A D G B e
The verse and chorus are correct. The chords of the pre-chorus are at least close. I
a hard time picking out those chords in the mix, so had to resort to video recording
at a recent show (Flyleaf is great live by the way). So, all of this tab is “Guitar 1”
only. If you find errors (and you probably will), please suggest corrections. Thanks.
Verse 1 0:00 - 0:26
Tell the swine... There's a note in the pages...
