This took me a little while to learn, so I figured I would share this on OLGA. This tablature is my own work and the work of the original poster, it may be distributed freely. I have merely expanded on the original post. I've included more detail of the song. Guitar Setup: Use the neck pickups to get a warm a sound as you can. If you have chorus, set the rate to 40% and the depth to 60%. If you have a delay, set that to match the song. On a Line6 POD, I am using 'POD Layer' with 'Drive' set to 55% with delay and chorus. Effect tweak set at 45%. Playing: I strummed upstrokes for the Rythym phrases, so you don't end up catching the G string. Other than that, I think it's self-explanatory. Also, Rythym I is used played 4 times in the intro. -------------------------------- Verse: *************************************************************** Rythym I (4x) Rythym II (2x) E|--10--8--5--8----|-9-8-6-8----------------------------------- B|--10--8--6--8----|-8-9-4-9----------------------------------- G|-----------------|------------------------------------------- D|-----------------|------------------------------------------- A|-----------------|------------------------------------------- E|-----------------|------------------------------------------- Rythym III (4x) Rythym IV (1x) E|---9--7--4--7----|-5-4-2-4----------------------------------- B|---9--7--5--7----|-4-5-0-5----------------------------------- G|-----------------|------------------------------------------- D|-----------------|------------------------------------------- A|-----------------|------------------------------------------- E|-----------------|------------------------------------------- *************************************************************** Chorus: *************************************************************** Em7 D5/F# G Am7 C D C D (Repeat 3x) E|-0----0------3--3------------------------------------------- B|-3----3------3--1---5/7-7-7\5-5-5/7-7-7\5------------------- G|-0----2------0--0---5/7-7-7\5-5-5/7-7-7\5------------------- D|-2----0------0--2---5/7-7-7\5-5-5/7-7-7\5------------------- A|-2----0------2--0---3/5-5-5\3-3-3/5-5-5\3------------------- E|-0----2------3---------------------------------------------- Cm7 Dm7 Ebmaj7 F E|-3----5----6-------8-------------------------------------------- B|-4----6----8-------10-------------------------------------------- G|-3----5----7-------10-------------------------------------------- D|-5----7----8-------10-------------------------------------------- A|-3----5----6-------8-------------------------------------------- E|------------------------------------------------------------ ***************************************************************
