Tuning:
Every Breath You Take by The Police Most of this is based on 'add9' chords, with a nice picking pattern too. Use the right hand palm to damp the strings and get a dry staccato feel. Use a delay set to one quaver note length so that the delay is echoing the picked note, but one note behind. The basic chord progression is : Intro : Aadd9 F#madd9 Dadd9 D Eadd9 E Aadd9 Verse : Aadd9 F#madd9 Dadd9 D Eadd9 E F#madd9 Aadd9 F#madd9 Dadd9 D Eadd9 E Aadd9 INTRO: Aadd9 E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G------------6-------------------6----------------------- D-------9------9----9-------9------9----9--------------- A-----7----7------7-------7----7------7------------------ E---5-------------------5-------------------------------- F#madd9 E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G----------2-----------------2--------------------------- D------6-----6---6-------6-----6---6--------------------- A----4---4-----4-------4---4-----4----------------------- E--2-----------------2----------------------------------- Dadd9 D Eadd9 E E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G-------9----7-------------11---9------9----------------- D-----7--------7---7-----9--------9----9----------------- A---5------------5-----7-------------7------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- Aadd9 E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G-----------6----------------6----------------------- D-------9-----9---9------9-----9---9--------------- A-----7---7-----7------7---7-----7------------------ E---5----------------5-------------------------------- VERSE 1:
