3 Doors Down - Behind Those Eyes Tab

3 Doors Down: Seventeen Days - Track 7 - Behind Those Eyes

What?! No tabs for this song anywhere online? Well here's what I believe to be the
first attempt at tabbing this out. Any comments or corrections are welcome. The only

Part I haven't got is the guitar solo and improvised fills for the second guitar.

It's been a while since I posted a tab but here one is. Legend: h - Hammer on p - Pull off b - Bend r - Bend Return = - Staccato (Stopping the note after picking it, generally by lifting fretting hand off strings) x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

CHORUS

BOTH GUITARS - DISTORTION 0:53 I'm pretty sure this is accurate but its possible they may be playing in Drop-D to put power behind the D power chord.

This is the backing riff to the solo. Unfortunately I haven't worked out the solo, but

INTERLUDE

BOTH GUITARS - CLEAN 2:42

Directly after the solo the distortion goes away and both guitars play lines similar to this.

This whole riff is played twice.
