Raise Hell
Brandi Carlile
The studio version of this song will probably sound a bit different than the
one I heard on YouTube, especially since this is an acoustic version. The
lyrics might not me right either. Here's the link to the video I tabbed it from:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9mIFBpgyPE
I didn't find it necessary to tab the song for two guitars, 'cause the part
Tim plays is just like Brandi's except he plays some of the chords higher up
the neck. The song is very straight forward, but I put both Brandi's and
Tim's chords below just in case. And also Tim's riff and solo.
Notes:
As far as I can see in the videos I've found on YouTube they play an F#, but you may as 
well play F#m.
(s) = strum
(sm) = strum then mute
* = riff
The parts that says "no guitar" sounds good with a bit of muted strumming.
When playing Tim's solo and riff, mute the strings you're not playing.
Brandi plays the first verse alone, except for when Tim plays the riff.
