I thought to share this tab with all you guitarists out there
- dream theater fans.
Notes: this is one of my favourite Dream Theater songs now. This song is
pretty easy until the middle, then it's solo city! Well, if you have
anything to say or add (i.e., solos!), just email me at the address above.
