He plays that d but as a pinch harmonic. You could try to get it on the D string between the eight and ninth or between the second and third fret or on the G string right above the third fret. e|----------------------------------5------6-----10--12--10--9--10--12-------| B|-------------------------5--6--8------------8------------------------------| G|-------------------5--7----------------------------------------------------| D|----------5--7--8----------------------------------------------------------| A|-5--7--8-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Alternative fingering for this passage: e|----------------------------------------------------12----------12---------| B|-------------------------------------------------15----15-14-15------------| G|----------------------------10-12-14----15-14-12---------------------------| D|-------------------10-12-14------------------------------------------------| A|----------10-12-13---------------------------------------------------------| E|-10-12-13------------------------------------------------------------------| e|-15--13--12--18--17--15--20--18--17--20b22---------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| If you can do fast picking on those last notes. Hold the last bend, then play a bit with pinch harmonics on the fifth fret on the D string and then on the G string (and use whammy bar of course). Then it goes back to the chorus (which is slightly changed): e|------------------------|-------------| B|------------------------|-------------| G|------------------------|-------------| D|------------------------|-------------| A|-5--5--5--5--5--5--5--5-|-7-----------| E|-3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3-|-5-----------| e e e e e e e e e e q h After the war who would you be fighting for e|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| B|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| G|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| D|-7-----|-------10-------10---|-5----------------|-------3--------3----| A|-5-----|-8--8--8--8--8--8----|-3----------------|-1--1--1--1--1--1----| E|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| w e e e e e e q w e e e e e e q After the war who would you be fighting for e|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| B|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| G|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| D|-7-----|-------10-------10---|-5----------------|-3-------------------| A|-5-----|-8--8--8--8--8--8----|-3----------------|-1-------------------| E|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| w e e e e e e q w w After the fire is burning to its dying embers e|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| B|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| G|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| D|-7-----|-------10-------10---|-5----------------|-------3--------3----| A|-5-----|-8--8--8--8--8--8----|-3----------------|-1--1--1--1--1--1----| E|-------|---------------------|------------------|---------------------| w e e e e e e q w e e e e e e q Guitar 1(rythm) I'm not sure about the end as it is "hidden" behind the singing. e3 = eighth triplet e|----------------|---------------------|------------------|-------------------------| B|----------------|---------------------|------------------|-------------------------| G|----------------|---------------------|------------------|-7--5--------------------| D|-7--------------|-------10-------10---|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--|-------7--5--------------| A|-5--------------|-8--8--8--8--8--8----|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|-------------8--7--5--3--| E|----------------|---------------------|------------------|-------------------------| w e e e e e e q e e e e e e e e e3 e3 e3 e3 e3 e3 q q Guitar 2(solo) e|-(22)b25-b24-22-|--(22)b25--b24--22---|-b24--22--20------|-22--------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Then there is that small rythm part. I couldn't figure out what to play over that. It ends with one guitar playing a D powerchord and a second doing something like a D minor arpeggio in the 10 fret. ************ w = whole note h = half note q = quarter note e = eighth note ************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note | b Bend | pb Pre-bend | br Bend release | pbr Pre-bend release | brb Bend release bend ************
