Emotionsickness Guitar Tablature
Band - Silverchair
Song - Emotion Sickness
Tabber - Daniel

Alternative tuning; Open Db: Db-Ab-Db-Ab-Db-Db low to high
from standard tuning, from low to high:

* tune down the low E string to Db (3 half-steps down)
* tune down the A string to Ab (1 half-step down)
* tune down the D string to Db (1 half-step down)
* tune up the G string to Ab (1 half-step up)
* tune up the B string to Db (2 half-steps up)
* tune down the high E string to Db (3 half-steps down), so that the two strings 
are the same 

It is really good to play once tuned propely.
I was helped to tab this by someone very patient. (thanks)
