Capo: 1
Our Lady Peace - 4 AM | Difficulty: Novice to Intermediate, depending on how fancy you want to get; look at the footnotes for fingering instructions as well as basic chords for those who aren't ready to face down suspended chords quite yet*.

FOOTNOTES: * Gsus2, Asus2/4, D/F#, Cadd2, & Cmaj7 chords are optional, but I feel they add depth and richness to the song. Note that a chord like 'A - Asus2' just indicates that you should switch to the sus2 at some point in the two measures you'll be playing the chord. It's something you just gotta feel. Although none of these chords are particularly difficult to play, the basic versions are helpfully listed underneath: _ Gsus2 | Asus2 | Asus4 | D/F# | Cadd2 | Cmaj7 (A.k.A. Em/C) e 3 0 0 x x 0 B 3 0 3 3 3 0 G 0 2 2 2 0 0 D 0 2 2 0 2 2 A 0 0 0 0 3 3 E 3 x x 2 x x - G A A D C Em <--Basic Chords __ ** Un-capo'ed, the chords are Cm, Ab, F, Eb, Bb, C#, and Fm7. I don't hold with dumb chords like D#, G#, or A#. __ *** Yes, before you complain, I know this isn't the actual bridge, but if you're trying to play the song on acoustic guitar or piano, you really need a guy behind you wailing on an electric guitar and stomping on a fuzzbox to make the actual bridge not sound neurotic and disjointed. My version flows with the song well enough that nobody I've played it for has ever noticed the difference. Bridges exist so lead guitarists can show off their soloes, whereas this version is designed to be played solo. If you have a friend who can wail, the actual bridge is: D C Bm G x4 . __ Enjoy! ~Fake
