Down To The Wire by Fates Warning

Tabs

Guitar Tableture for FATES WARNING's - Down To The Wire
Transcribed by Jesse Rink ([email protected])

Notes: I realize it may not be 100%, but what do you expect?!? It's darn
close and you will probably be quite happy with it. Relatively short and
repetitive rhythms, and an easy solo, make the song quick to learn. So
have
fun and leave any comments to my email address listed above. see ya...

I'm always looking for new Dream Theater and Fates Warning tabs... If you
have any you'd like to send me, let me know! Up The Irons!!

Notation: x = mute
      / = slide up
      \ = slide down
      p = pull off
      h = hammer on
     () = 2nd time through play THESE notes instead
     (b) = bend full step up
     (Chord diagramBB) = bend half step up
        I did not add vibrato key notation. Use your head.
