 Theater - Honor Thy Father
from the 2003 album Train Of Thought

Transcribed by Travis Lausch

Notes: I just got the cd, and it's heavier than everything else out there.
I'm sure John Petrucci uses a 7 string for most of the album. Anyway, here's 
my tab for the song "Honor Thy Father", it's in Dropped D tuning one full
step down (C G C F A D), and played with a lot of distortion. I only figured
out about half the song so far, the rest will come as soon as my fingers 
stop bleeding. For those who don't know where the "verse" or "chorus" is, I
also included lyric markers so you know where you are. If anyone has any 
questions, comments, corrections, or additions, just email me at the 
address above. I'd really appreciate it!
