Band - Breaking Benjamin
Song Natural Life
Album Saturate
Tabbed by -
There is a video of Aaron Fink, (Breaking Benjamins lead guitarist) giving a little
on how to play this song, but since he is only one of the guitar players (Ben is vocals and
guitar) and the video is unclearI decided to perfect itthough this is my first tab so...
PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THE COMMENTS AND ALTERNATIVE RIFFS THAT I GIVE AS THEY ARE
TO HELP YOU PLAY THIS SONG BETTER AND WITH MORE EASE.
(this is more prominent on bass than guitar, but play it just as loud unless you will
it with a bassist)

Keep going with this, but around the fifth of sixth time, gradually release the
until..there is no palm mute, them PM again. By the way, this is 2 times, not one, keep
in
while counting to the fifth of sixth time.
PERSONALLY, I LIKE TO KEEP THE GUITAR PART FOR THE VERSE ON ONE STRING DUE TO ALL THE
MUTINGSO I JUST REPLACE THE 8 ON THE A FLAT STRING WITH 15 ON THE LOW D FLAT STRING.
NEED TO MOVE YOUR HAND MORE, BUT THE PICKING IS A LOT EASIER.
Ok, Im sorry, but Im too lazy to tab out the chorusso this is the chorus by
a lot innerfears.
