Tuning: Altered Drop B (B F# B E F# B) 

Tuning note: This song you can just play in regular Drop B (B F# B E G# C#) 
             since the 1st and 2nd strings aren't used (at least in the way 
             I tab it)  however  to keep it consistent with how the other 
             songs off this album are tuned  the notation will read with the 
             altered tuning. Again  you can just tune to regular Drop B if 
             you wish  it doesn't matter for this song.
