SHINEDOWN - SIMPLE MAN
Album - Leave a Whisper
Tabbed by: PortoJohn (John Damiani)
_________________________________________________________________
Standard Tuning: EADGBe
Guitar One: Clean acoustic (no reverb). Use a pick.
NOTE: For the muted chords in this song, don't mute all of the
strings completely. You don't want to hear a 'raking' sound when
you play them. Instead, leave your fingers in the position of the
chord you're on and just let off a little. It's okay if a couple
of the strings ring when you strum. Pay attention to the strumming
patterns and the chords noted on top of the tablature, and listen
to the song to get a proper feel for it.

Only play this twice. This time, certain notes are played slightly
ringier (as noted). Otherwise, it's the exact same as above. The
vocals continue into the pre-chorus.

Another very slight variation on the verse structure. Yeah,
it's one note. I'm being obnoxious here, but that's how it's
played.

All of the chori in this song are played exactly the same. I've only
pasted them again so you don't need to scroll up and down as you're
going through the song.

Play the first three measures of this verse a little quieter.
For the fourth, build up along with the vocals.
