6DOIT: I. Overture

Band Name: Dream Theater Song Title: 6 Degrees Of Inner Turbulence: I. Overture Album: 6 Degrees Of Inner Turbulence Drummer: Mike Portnoy Time: 6:50 Tabbed By: Mark Sibbald Email: [email protected] Cym = X: Crash Cym = S: Splash Cym = C: China BD1 : Bass Drum SnD : Snare Drum Rim : Snare Rim Shot FlT1 : Floor Tom 1 FlT2 : Floor Tom 2 HF : Hi-Hat with foot Hh : Hi-Hat (open) tq = 4th note triplet tt = 8th note triplet tl = 16th note triplet I'm not sure about the Toms and the different kind of cymbals, because I play guitar and not drums. So, if you have any corrections, make them yourself (you probably know more about them than I do). 4x means: play this measure 4 times Time measures are given at the beginning of a bar Enjoy!!
