Band- Queens Of The Stone Age
Song- The Sky Is Falling

Tuning:   Down 2 whole steps   == C F Bb Eb ==

This is how it`s played on the CD, and it`s played with a pick.
To get this tuning its easier to tune a 5 string half a step up.


                      p ... Pull Off       b ... Bend
/ ... Slide Down      h ... Hammer On      r ... Release Bend


This is all my own work. Enjoy.



6/8 Time

Most of this song is played on the 12th fret or above, that`s why it sounds boomy at times.
If you use standard tuning you can still play it easily by transposing
