Shovel
Song: Shovel

Album: See Through Me
Song By: Dumpster(nelson/darnill/langella

First off, I got the song off the Toast and Olive sampler, so I don’t
have the lyrics or anything. I just like the song and stumbled across the
music while playing one day, so I decided to tab it. There are two
guitars I think, one clean and one semi-distorted. During the arpeggio
parts, lightly pick the strings on the semi-distorted(which veils the
distortion), then strum normally in the chorus. In other words, use
good pick dynamics with the distorted guitar.
Intro/Verse:
Gtr.1 (clean
