Every Breath You Take by The Police


Most of this is based on 'add9' chords, with a nice picking pattern too. Use the right hand palm to damp the strings and get 
a dry staccato feel.  Use a delay set to one quaver note length so that the delay is echoing the picked note, but one note behind.


The basic chord progression is :

Intro :  Aadd9   F#madd9  Dadd9 D  Eadd9 E  Aadd9
Verse :  Aadd9   F#madd9  Dadd9 D  Eadd9 E  F#madd9
         Aadd9   F#madd9  Dadd9 D  Eadd9 E  Aadd9
