Knockin' On Heaven's DoorKnockin' On Heaven's Door

By: David Harrison (blaze@interlog.com)

Song: "Knockin On Heavens Door" by "G'N'R"

Album: "Use Your Illusion II"(1991)

This is one of Guns n' Roses best songs if you ask me. I saw that no one had

tabbed the second solo so I did it, as well as the rest of the song. If you

have any questions, comments, additions, or corrections feel free to e-mail

them to me.

Tuning: Down 1/2 A Step.
