Tuning: D A D G B E
Video of me playing this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-kB9iVyBS0
My timing is a bit off in some places so use the real song as a reference to time. This is to just show
my shapes and how I play it.
Tuning: Drop D (DADGBe) this tab can be played in standard as this section doesn't actually use the low D but
the rest of the song is in this tuning.
Chords used:
1 2 3 *
e|---0----0----0----0---|
G|---0----0----0----0---|
B|---12---9----5----0---| * This isn't really a chord,
D|---0----10---7----0---| just more a passage to go from one chord to the next.
A|---12---8----5----0---|
D|---x----x----x----0---|
So the structure for the chords part pretty much goes as follows: Chords 1 to 2 to 3 to 2, but holding on to
chord 3 on the 2nd time round.
