Author/Artist: Queens Of The Stone Age

Title: Better Living Through Chemistry

Album: Rated R

Transcribed by: Martin Kelly

Email: eternal_hour@hotmail.com

 

This is great song. It's really atmospheric, but has

lightning fast guitar parts to it, and a smooth tom-tom

intro or something.

It's a pretty fast guitar piece, but when you get it, it's

nice and satisfying.

My tab is NOT complete, so if you can fill it in, please do so.

 

Standard Tuning. (EADGBE)
