NOTE
Redemption is a two guitar introduction into the 'are you still down' album.
You wouldnt have this tab if you didnt know that or hear the actual track
already, but for those who stumbled...lets just say theres a lead player and
a rhythm player. My notation is basic though it helps to listen to the song
to get it right; for instance some bends maybe reverse bends or half bends.
Feel free to make corrections to this tab.

E|--3-----------5--|		I havent completed the entire rhytmn section
B|--3-----------5--|		at this point but Im absolutely positive the
G|--4-----0-----5--|		chords are correct though youll need to find
D|--5-----2-----5--|		the add ons to go with them as there isnt
A|--5-----2-----3--|		much of a strum to go with the lead.
E|--3-----0-----3--|

After this comes what I call the hardest part of the song. A fast scale
consisting of hammers pulls and slides simply too fast to pinpoint into tab at
the moment. This will be updated in the future along with the rhythm tab...ENJOY
