Bleed For Me Guitar Tablature
Name: Blake Carino
Artist: Black Label Society
Guitarist: Zakk Wylde
Song : Bleed for Me
Tuning: C G C F A D

Before we begin, Im going to have to admit that I have commited the ultimate sin of tabbing. 
This tab is from Guitar World's March 2003 issue and was transcribed by Jeff Perrin. I love this band, 
I love Zakk's playing, and I love this song. So I wanted the real, correct version on here. Hey, at least its right.......

In case you didn't know:
                  / = Slide                      PH = Pinch Harmonic
                H = Hammer-on              P = Pull-off
                 ^ = Bend
               ~~ = Trill/Tremolo
                 T = Finger Tap

Alright, thats it. The solo is sweet and easy, so have fun with that, and the riff is simple, the way all riffs should be. Zakk IS the Eddie Van Halen and
Randy Rhoads of today. Well im out----
