[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ This song uses an unusual open tuning.
We're going to cover two sections.
The picked verse section and the strummed chorus section.
[Bm] _ _ [G] _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[G] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [B] Tune your sixth string down to low B and
the remaining [D] strings to D in three different octaves. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Start by playing the third fret sixth string,
_ _ then pick strings four, _ _ _ then one, two and three.
It should sound like this. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Play the pattern at the third fret once, _ _
_ _ _ then play the same pattern with the bass [E] note at the fifth [D] fret.
_ _ _ _ Now play the eighth [G] fret [D] _ _ and
repeat the pattern twice.
[G] _ [D] _
_ _ _ So far we have this. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Next play the pattern again [B] with an open sixth string, _
[D] _ _ _ _ then tenth fret sixth string, _
_ _ _ then eighth fret sixth [G] string.
[D]
Again play the pattern twice. _ _ _ _
Here's the second half again.
[B] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ So once again start at third fret,
_ _ [E] then fifth [D] fret,
then eighth [G] fret,
[D] _ _ _ _ then open,
[B] _
[D] _ tenth fret _ and eighth fret.
[G] _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ The strummed chorus section starts with this chord.
_ _ _ [Bm] [B] Play ninth fret fifth string and
[Bm] twelfth fret fourth string.
Then play all the other strings open.
_ Strum down up down.
_ Next move the [D] twelfth fret note down to the [C#] eleventh fret and once [Bm] again strum all six strings.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] For the third chord play the fifth fret on strings five and four and once again strum all six strings. _ _ _ _
[D] Here are those three chords [Bm] again.
_ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Here's the whole thing played [D] slowly. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ [D] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
And here it is up to speed. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
