Looking Down the Cross табулатура
Tuning: 1/4 step down
NOTE: For the intro, let the notes on the high 'e' and
low 'E' strings ring while you tap the harmonics.
To fret the notes, either use your thumb to come over and
fret the note on the low 'E', or do an overhand technique
and use your index and middle finger on the low 'E' and
high 'e', respectively. Then finger pick the two strings,
using your middle finger to tap the harmonic.
To do the harmonic, you tap the fretwire over the 24th fret,
similar to The Conjuring intro. You don't need a 24th
fret to do this either, just tap the string down where the
24th fret would be, you should get the same effect.
