The Best Of Times Intro Tab
hey guys this is the tabs for the fast intro that fades in after the piano and acoustic
part. it took me a while to figure out and i had to slow it down using the MP-GT1 by
so im pretty sure this is correct.
Enjoy!!

Well, there it is.
i hope this helped although its really complicated (what else is new, Dream Theater?)
be warned: playing it up to speed is WICKED hard, so dont expect to get it on your first try.
I may edit this after the week of July 26, 2010 because im going to a guitar camp in new
CT where i will have the opertunity to meet John Petrucci himself and i'll ask him
this song just for u guys!!!!
until then, GOOD LUCK
