Chickenfoot - "Future in the Past"
From Chickenfoot Debut album
Drop D tuning
tabbed by jjhand 


The end of this song reminds me of "Rise Today" by Alter Bridge, 
but the middle is very funky and random. Plenty of soloing from
Satch to learn too, so let me know if anything seems off. 

Please rate or comment. Thanks!
