Bend Your Arms to Look Like Wings Guitar Tablature
Howdy ho. This is the first tab i've posted. Well let’s do it.
First tune your guitar down 1 semitone and then the 6th string down another tone (2 frets). They use the same tuning on all the songs on both albums. Oh and there are 2 guitars going most of the time so I’ve done them both. Also, this is all alternate picking but you’ll get the hang of it fast.

Intro:
	As the sun sets…  	etc

Guitar 1
Eb:------------------------------------------------------
Bb:------------------------------------------------------
Gb:------------------------------------------------------
Db:--2--0-0-0----2---0-0-0-----2---0-0-0-------2---0-0-0-
Ab:-----------4------------4-0---0-------4--------------4
Db:4--4--------0---0-------------------------2---2-------

Guitar 2
Eb:------------------------------------------------------
Bb:------------------------------------------------------
Gb:------------------------------------------------------
