Daily Dose 7/14 Guns N’ Roses – Knockin On Heavens Door

July 14, 2008 by Scott  

Bob Dylan is and was just one of those amazing song writers that wrote so many songs that have been covered by amazing musicians over the years. While Dylan’s singing left quite a bit to be desired, the music itself never fell short and his singing style always made him a unique musician. Not to mention the fact that Dylan never cared what anyone thought about his views or opinions and wrote, played and spoke up on the issues at hand as he still does today.

But wait.  Your saying “I thought this is supposed to be about Guns N Roses?” It is, but without Bob Dylan bands like Guns N Rosesmay have never existed. Below you will find links to guitar Tab (Chords only) for Knockin On Heavens Door, both Dylan version and Guns N Roses Version. You will notice that it is a bit different in spots but both are about the same. Axl Rose adds his own style with the singing and the timing from the original is a little different as well. Slash does an amazing job as usual with the guitar work and overall this is just a great cover of a timeless Bob Dylan classic.
