Capo: 3
Tuning:
The other tabs were either incomplete or had errors, so I decided to submit a
correct one. This is the version from "American IV: The Man Comes Around".
D = EADGBe C = EADGBe D7 = EADGBe D7sus2 = EADGBe Dsus2 = EADGBe
xx0232 332010 xx0212 xx0210 xx0230
G = EADGBe G* = EADGBe A = EADGBe A7 = EADGBe A7sus2 = EADGBe
320033 32000x x02220 x02020 x02000
E = EADGBe E7 = EADGBe Asus2 = EADGBe Bm = EADGBe
022100 020100 x02200 244322
(G* is a standard G chord with the high e string muted. It's only used a
few times. He doesn't actually play a chord in the recording, but this mimics
the piano accompaniment better than a full G.
C/G can be substituted with a regular C chord, but I think the full chord
sounds better.
Note how Johnny plays his Gs - the third finger is on the third fret of the
B string.
You can drop the sustain chords and just play the normal chords and it
still sounds good.)
