                           PRICELESS - Mayday Parade
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Drop D (DADGBe)

Guitar 1 - Brooks Betts
Guitar 2 - Alex Garcia

Note: This song is played in Drop Db because the harmonics in that tuning work with the song. There are no
harmonics in standard turning that are the same pitch as the ones in the song (intro riff). The first half
of this tab is in Drop D with the harmonics substituted with actual notes on the fretboard (13 & 18 on
high E). The second half is the tuning I'm 99% sure it was recorded in.
