Acoustic Guitar:
Most of the song follows the same 4 chords, in the following progression:
D Bm A G
e|-2-|-2--|-0-|-3-|
B|-3-|-3--|-2-|-3-|
G|-2-|-4--|-2-|-0-|
D|-0-|-4--|-2-|-0-|
A|---|-2--|-0-|-2-|
E|---|----|---|-3-|
Listen to the song for the pattern, it's easy enough to figure out.
In the first verse, an electric guitar strums along with the chords, once on each.
Chorus 1:
Electric Guitar: Fill 1
(4x)
e|---14-14-14-14---------|
B|---------------15--15--|
G|-----------------------|
D|-----------------------|
A|-----------------------|
E|-----------------------|
Interlude: Fill 2: (at 2:09)
e|------0---------------|
B|--------3-------------|
G|----------2-----------|
D|--0----------4b(5)r4--|
A|----------------------|
E|----------------------|
Fill 3: (at 2:30)
e|--------------------------------------------|
B|--5b(7)-5b(7)-5b(7)-5b(7)-5b(7)-5b(7)-------|
G|--------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------|
*Bend the note once, and keep picking the bent note.
The second half of the verse, play Fill 2.
In the 2nd chorus, the electric guitar plays the chords along with the acoustic.
Solo: (Not completely sure about this, there's a lot of noise)
(at 3:53)
e|------------------------------------|--10--------10-------------------------------------|
B|---10v---------10----------10-------|-----10------------13-10--------10--------10-------|
G|-------------------12----------12---|--------12---------------12v-------12--------12v---|
D|------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|
The backing guitar changes the strum pattern to D-A-G (2x).
End the song by playing the chorus a couple of times, till it fades out.
It's an easy song, and a good song. If anybody out there knows a better way to play the solo, correct the tab or something...
