Song: Who Wants to Live Forever (Queen Cover)
Band: Breaking Benjamin
Tuning: Low To High (C A A# G# G C)
Tabbed By: Adam Seto
This is a song from the Killer Queen album. It took me a long time to write this tab and
aren’t any posts for this song so don’t be harsh! Listen closely to the song and you
hear that some if not all of this tab is right. Anyway, enjoy and PLEASE RATE!
