Drop D tuning (dadgbe)
Ive been working on this for a while to get it to sound rite. I am 100% sure that the intro and chorus is exactly how they play it on the album, im not totally sure about the bridge but i think its rite, it sounds good to me. If u think its wrong ur jes not playin it rite or ur tone def, u decide, dont forget drop d tuning!
i looked at the version thats here and the intro is kind of off, but illl give that guy credit he did a good job
Ok if you want to play this song just like on the album you will need an electric guitar with some kind of acoustic simulator effect. It sounds ok to do it in a clean channel electric on the acoustic parts too, but i prefer the real sound. Its also fun to play the whole thing on acoustic, its a nice little entertaining piece to play in front of people. They dont play it on two different guitars, they only have one guitarist and i saw them play it live on a few different shows.
(there is no timing here u gotta figure out how many times to play each chord urself)
Intro/Verse (acoustic guitar/sim)3x
