The Fire The Steel The Tread

Tabbed by: TheVolta



Please take a moment to rate this tab and leave feedback/criticism.

This is only my fourth tab, but does sound accurate.

I hope to get around to tabbing more Chuck Ragan songs so send me suggestions.

I could not find or transcribe accurate lyrics, unfortunately.



Lead guitar sections are below the chords.



*Standard tuning, no capo*
