Song: Forever Tonight Band: Pantera Album: I Am the Night Year: 1985 Part: Whole song *This is based on the other tab but I tried to make it easier to understand how to play the tapped harmonics. To play the intro/chorus riff, first play the fretted note then tap the one that's in the square brackets using your right hand. It's missing a bit but mostly everything is here and in order* Intro:
