Guitar Tab


 		Unforgiven -Metallica
 		++++++++++
 
 There are actually 4 different guitars played in this song, so it's quite
 difficult to type in the whole tabs, so I've left the rhythm guitar and 
 some fills off, but here is some kind of version to play along with
 I hope you are satisfied.
 
 The timing should be right, 1/8 note equals to 0---, 1/16 to 0- etc.)
 
 I've used two .s to indicate the repeat mark in the notes, I hope it doesn't
 bother you
 
 Slowly ( 0--- =69 )
