          Let It Die - Three Days Grace
-------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Karleen Heong
Email: the_aurora_australis@hotmail.com

Tuning: Drop D (6=D,5=A,4=D,3=G,2=B,1=E)

I just heard this song two days ago and decided
to tab it. It's a pretty simple song so I did it
completely by ear, and there may be some minor
errors but it's as close as I can get. This can
be played with two guitars or three, instead of
an acoustic just use clean.Hope the layout isn't
confusing.

Note: As far as I can hear nothing else is
      played while guitar 2 plays the 333
      powerchord so guitar 1 can also play
      that instead of the 9-7 octave

Okay that looks way more complicated than it is
but it's really not. Well at least it's specific.
Please enjoy the tab. Don't hesitate to email if there are problems or you can't understand something.
