Father of Mine
Everclear
Transcribed by CHriS DupoNT

This song is tuned up about 1 quarter step.
This means that the C#, for example is neither a C# nor a D.
It's somewhere right in between. So what you have to do is listen to the
CD and play the base notes of the power chords on your A string.
It will sound flat.  Tune the A string UP until the notes sound right.
Then tune the rest of your guitar to the A string.
So tuning should be EADGBE about 1/4 step up.


S=slide
ho=hammer on
po=pull off
b=bend
r=return
