When You Were Young (ver 4) by The Killers
===THE KILLERS===
==When You Were Young==
Right I'm not gonna ramble on about nonsense like the others do but this is my first tab
be nice... =]
Guitar 1 = Rhythm Guitar (slightly clean) - Standard Tuning E B G D A E
(instead of having to tune your guitar to Down 1/2 Step, I just tabbed it down a semitone)
Guitar 2 = Lead Guitar (slight overdrive) - Down 1/2 Step Eb Bb Gb Db Ab Eb
(for simplicity's sake I have just put it as standard tuning on the tab)
==Intro==
As suggested by digital_seige, play this for the intro, it works better:
Guitar 1
E|-2-|
B|-2-|
G|-1-|
D|-x-|
A|-2-|
E|-0-|
Set your Volume knob low, play the chord, then turn up the volume knob for the effect,
scratch.
Cheers for the tip... continue as follows:

If you have a guitar that allows a whammy bar, rest your palm on the bridge whilst
this on the lead in, it should give the correct effect.

On the piano bit near "talks like a gentleman", get guitar 2 to do this:
|--------------|
|--------------|
|--9-—7-5—-4---|
|--x—-x-x—-x-7-|
|--7—-5-3—-2-x—|
|------------5—|
The rest is pretty self explanatory!
Post all comments nicely along with any corrections if you have any, I am willing to
criticism is the best way I will learn!
Cheers for reading and peace out!
