Brother Tab

by Dark New Day


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
		      "Brother" - Dark New Day
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Im just completing the tab the other guy began but I will add some other stuff too.
First of all guitarists Clint Lowery and Troy McLawhorn play this song in a low tuning
of Bb F Bb Eb G Bb so heavy gauge strings are needed to perfectly recreate their sounds.
 Many of Lowery's riffs on this track are  very similar to ones he played while with
Sevendust.  This tab is not perfect since there is a few quiet riffs heard in the intro
me.

Tuning:Bb F Bb Eb G Bb

guitar 1: Clint Lowery
