Opeth - White Cluster From the album "Still Life" tabbed by Thomas Hjelm (teh0001@unt.edu) http://www.geocities.com/azabua.geo/ Here's a tab of the last track off of Still Life. The only thing missing is the solos (as usual). I didn't bother to write out little nuances such as vibrato or slight variations of riffs, sorry. Also, I'm not an expert at spacing when it comes to the timing of the song, sorry again. Regardless, this tab should be sufficient to learning the song. **Riff order is at the very bottom of the tab. ***Send any comments or questions regarding this tab or anything else to teh0001@unt.edu.
