Artist: Staind
Title: Excess Baggage
Album: MTV Unplugged (2001)
Tabbed by: Me (alreadygone@gmx.de)
Please read this !
Since Mike Mushok plays a Baritone Guitar I tabbed this out for normal drop-D guitar
and I guaratee my tabs are 100% accurate, just play along the dvd and you'll see.
The songs I haven't completely figured out yet are "pressure", "It's been Awhile"
(which has 3 guitars in it!!!), "cant believe" and "fade". I'd really appreciate
it if anyone knows how these songs are played in the unplugged and helped me.
Time: 6/8
