Gave It All Away (ver 2) by Mika
Gave It All Away - Mika Solo Version
Written by Mika, as performed by Mika
Mika's solo version of this song uses a somewhat unusual tuning
for the guitar. The strings are tuned as follows:
1Eb (down a 1/2 step)
2Bb (down a 1/2 step)
3Gb (down a 1/2 step)
4Db (down a 1/2 step)
5B (up a whole step)
6E (unchanged)
The 6th and 5th strings are like an open E tuning ala Elmo James,
while strings 4 through 1 are like Eb standard ala SRV or Jimi.
I call this the "Elmo Ray Hendrix" tuning... ;-)
The main chords used for this song are ||: B Eadd9 C#m7 F#-F#sus :||
Below are some suggested fingerings. You may want to use your
4th finger instead of the 3rd if it's more comfortable for you.
