                Aiden - HORROR QUEEN TAB
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This song is dark, fast, and surprisingly simple once you get the hang of it. It's in
Drop C majorC tuning and can't be played any other way.

I hear two guitars in the beginning; however, it can be done with just a guitar and a bass.
