Staind - It's been awhile
I'm not sure about the Solo, but i think it sounds correct when you play it against the CD.
There are two guitars playing.

Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
It's Been a While
(Lewis/Mushok/April/Wysocki)
By Staind
From the album "Break the Cycle"
Tabbed by Halfdan Baadsvik
halfdan@eskobar.nu
Since "It's Been a While" was released as
a single, truckloads of useless transcriptions
has been floating around the internet. So I
decided to hunt down the very few good tabs of
the song and, along with my own tabbing,
submit the whole thing. Though it's possible
that Mike uses a guitar with some sort of
crazy tuning, this is very accurate. And I
doubt you can get a better version from anyone
but Staind themselves.
This is mainly based on Freonite's intro
tab, so give him credit for the electric
fingerpicking parts.
Also, the whole song is played with standard
Eb-tuning except the electric guitar in the
chorus playing Eb-tuning with dropped Db.
Some parts of this tab might not sound so
good the first time you play it, so try to
play while listening to the record and please
don't judge things before you've done that.
And remember, you can't always hold an excact
chord while fingerpicking.
But enough of that, here we go...

X - mute

Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
It's Been Awhile
Written and performed by Staind
From the album "Break the Cycle"
Transcribed by Halfdan Baadsvik (halfdan@eskobar.nu)
Mike uses a baritone guitar. For those who don't know what
that is, it means the six lowest strings on a seven string
guitar is put on a six string guitar. Just like Aaron and
Jhonny, he also tunes his strings a half step down making
the tuning (from low to high) Ab Db Ab Db Gb Bb.
Aaron uses an acoustic guitar in standard Eb tuning. Low
to high Eb Ab Db Gb Bb eb.
Note that in this transcription I've written the chord
names after their sounding, not fingering (Like if you
finger an E chord, it will sound as Eb when tuned down).

Chorus:
There are three lyrical versions of the chorus in the song,
but the chord progression is the same for all three. Here
is one version.
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
And everything I can remember
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
Is f**ked up as it always seemed
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
The consequences that I rendered
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
Gonna f**k things up again
[Bridge]
Am G6 Dsus2
Why must I feel this way?
Am G6 Dsus2
Just make this go away
Am G6 Dsus2
Just one more peaceful day
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
