My Own Savior Tab by Iced Earth
Band- Iced Earth
Song- My Own Savior
Album- Something Wicked This Way Comes
Tuning: Eb
NOTE: For this riff, the ending single notes are struck
like artificial harmonics, but so slight that I
didn't even mark them as such. The G note at the
very end is normal however.
