Great Debate

Transcribed by Travis Lausch

album, Six Degrees Of Inner 
Turbulence, and I tabbed the other 
song
"Disappear". This is a break from my
 usual tab format, because I just
included the riffs, but not the 
solos, as I usually do, but this one
was too difficult to figure out. If 
you're really that desparate, you'd
just have to think "What would John 
Petrucci play?" and you'll get it...
