Until It Sleeps Acoustic Tab by Metallica

Until It Sleeps Acoustic tab by Metallica

Guitar Tab

Okay here it is an acoustic version of until it sleeps, same as the
electric version but with no solo in the interlude. I have tabbed
the bass intro and finish for an acoustic guitar, if it was a bass
then you would have to play it an octave up for it to sound right.

Bass Intro:
|----------------------------------|
|----------------------------------|
|----------------------------------|
|---0-5--7/8--7--0-5--7/8--1--5----|


Verse Riff:

     Am
