Good Charlotte: My Bloody Valentine from The Young and the Hopeless Tabbed By: Tom O. (E-mail: fuzz4494@aol.com) Notes:This is a pretty easy song... I saw GC like a week ago in a club show in Buffalo and Paul was standing about 10 feet front of me on stage so i saw him play this song and i'm almost positive its 100%. He uses a Lakland 5 string (i know what youre thinkin... a 5 string in punk? NO WAY) tuned standard BEADG.Alot of the parts he plays lower than Benji and Billy on his B so its hard to hear but trust me its there.I'll just tab out the parts, the order you can figure out yourself.Enjoy!! Notation: /= slide ~=hold note **NOTE** OK,I'm tired of e-mailing people the same file 10 times a day lol, so I put the 4 and 5 string tabs into one.5 str. tuned BEADG,4 str. tuned down BFBE INTRO 5 STRING G|-----------------| D|-----------------|x4 A|-----------------| E|-----------------| B|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-| (4 string parts will be below the 5 string parts) E|-----------------|x4 B|-----------------| F|-----------------| B|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-| VERSE 5 STRING Part A G|-----------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------|x3 A|-----------------------------------| E|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-2-2-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| B|-----------------------------------| Part B G|---------------------------| D|---------------------------| A|-5--5--5--5--5--5--5-5-5-5-| E|---------------------------| B|---------------------------| then play part A 3x Part C G|---------------------------------| D|---------------------------------| A|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-| E|---------------------------------| B|---------------------------------| VERSE 4 STRING Part A E|-----------------------------------|x3 B|-----------------------------------| F|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-2-2-----------------| B|-------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-| Part B E|---------------------------| B|-3--3--3--3--3--3--3-3-3-3-| F|---------------------------| B|---------------------------| then play part A 3x Part C E|---------------------------------| B|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-| F|---------------------------------| B|---------------------------------| CHORUS 5 STRING Part A (You mourn the death...)
