                            The High Road
                           Three Days Grace

This was a suggested song and I wasn’t too thrilled about it the first couple listens.
But then, after playing it a couple times, I actually enjoy it all. “The High Road” is
very heart-felt and is definitely one that grows on you. Enjoy!

Guitar 1 Rhythmic (B  F# B  E  G# C# )
Guitar 2 Lead     (B  F# B  E  G# C# )

(If there is a “continued” it is because the numbers could not
fit on 1 line or connecting times played.)
