Creed - 'The Song You Sing'
From the Album 'Full Circle'
Tuning - all strings down 3 frets (C# F# B E G# C#)

The rhythms are difficult in this song since the acoustic has a eighth note 
pattern on low strings and high string melody triplets over 2 beats during 
these eighth note patterns, so the rhythm gets complex. I tried to show 
differences in rhythm so anyone can play these with some practice. 
Please rate or comment.

Guess my reflection had a lot to say
Why let my worries steal my days
It just brings me down"

Tell me what's all the talk about
Lately i've been in a real bad place
Can't let the world bring me down"
