Electric Guitar Tuning – Tune down : Ab Db Ab Db Gb Bb 
Acoustic Guitar Tuning – Tune down half step : Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb 

Tablature key -
h = hammer on
p = pull of
t = tap
~ = let the note ring
v = vibrate note
b = bend not
r = release note
/ = slide up to fret
 = slide down to fret
x = mute string(s)


Now onto the song :      

Hint : If you tune your electric guitar to Drop D (down 1/2 step)
       and move everything up 1 string and use the chorus of the 
       second tab it will sound pretty good too. (Look at my 2nd tab)

Title: Its Been Awhile (Easier Tuning)
Album: Break the Cycle
Transcribed by:Fernando delgado 
Email:[email protected] 
Tuning: Electric = Drop D (tuned down 1/2 step - Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)
        Acoustic = Tune Down 1/2 step (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)

This even sounds better than the real way to play it!
Intro/Verse - (listen to song for the rhythm)

Electric - (2) = quick notes hit at the end before switching chords or ghost notes
