Howling Bells
In the Woods
Song number 11 on Album 'Howling Bells'
This is tab is just the lead guitar. If you want to learn the rhythm guitar, find the
tab for this song on the internet and use the bass notes to work out the chords. This is
first tab, but I think it's pretty accurate.
(Note: If you are playing this song as a cover in a 2 guitar band, the lead guitar is
Drop D, but the rhythm stays in standard tuning)
