Text File

Alter Bridge - "Broken Wings" From "One Day Remains" Tuning- 5 string down 1/2 step tabbed by jjhand I thought you guys deserved an accurate version of Broken Wings. Brian started playing 5-string basses when Alter Bridge did the 'One Day Remains' sessions and he really harmonizes well with Mark's chords in this one.
