Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart tab by Chris Cornell (Ver. 2)

Guitar tabs

  • Tuning: Standard tuning
Off of the 2015 album Higher Truth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpMfZPAc1kg
The mandolin licks throughout the entire song use a technique called alternate picking;
meaning every downstroke is followed by an upstroke and vice versa. So every open A
string on the mandolin and, conversely, every 5th fret of the high e string on the
guitar is played on an upstroke.
