Tuning: C# Tuning (C# F# B E G# C#)

“Venusian 2”, by King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard

Transcribed by ear and by watching some live videos. One of the easier song on Infest The Rats Nest,
no super fast tempos or time signature changes. Only Stu played guitar on the record for this song,
so I’ll mostly be tabbing two guitar tracks for the double solo’s.
