Unfortunately not.I stopped reading music and tabs years ago

Basically some minor 7ths and a minor scale and just jam until I like what I hear and play.That's why I like some of these Youtube backings.I just jam along

I thought for sure this was gonna be a cover of Opeth's The Lotus Eater. Pretty much the exact opposite of this. :-D
