"Vitamin R (Leading Us Along)" by Chevelle
This is the first single from Chevelle's upcoming release "Thinking Like This
Could Do Us In", which hits stores September 21st. For this album, Pete has
tuned down another half step, all the way to A sharp! However, "Vitamin R" is
in Drop B tuning. Most of the songs from the Loeffler boys' last record "Wonder
What's Next" are in the same tuning. So slap some heavy strings on your guitar
and go to town. Here are all the parts to the song. Good Luck
