Heavens Dead tab by Audioslave

Tabs

Song: Heavens Dead
Artist: Audioslave
Album: Out of Exile
Tabber: Sam Stephens

  This is one of my favorite songs off Audioslave's new album.
It's got a real blues feel to it, especially the guitar solo.
The song is relatively simple; it's got three parts and a solo.
Note the Dropped D MajorD tuning. I didn't make an attempt to mark the
timing, so you'll need to listen to the song to pick it out.

This is the intro/verse riff.

Here is the Chorus for the second time around.
It's the same as the first chorus just done twice in a row
with an E5E5 used to turn around.

Guitar Solo. This song is in the key of D, so a BB minor blues
scale will sound great. Experiment and see what you can do on
your own.
