[G] _ _ [D] _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _
_ _ [D] _ I'm going to [C] do that.
_ [G]
On slide, the [D] intro has this_
_ [G] _
And there's this little thing, in analyzing the song, I'm like, how is he doing it?
It's not possible, because [D] it's not an open string, [G] but he made it sound like it was,
and then he came in, his tech goes, oh yeah, because that's his tuning, and he plays it,
and I'm like, [D] ah.
I picked up playing the guitar when [G] I was 12.
Didn't take a lot of guitar lessons, and sort of started developing my own way of detuning
the [D] guitar and playing different _ [G] tunings.
I said, well what inspired you to create these tunings and find these tunings?
He goes, I don't know, I just started turning the [D] knobs until it sounded like something to me.
I was [G] really influenced by Bob Mould as a guitar player, and Joni Mitchell, and oh my
god, Jimmy Page.
Curtis Mayfield is also a famous person who did this, and the way he described it, when
he first played the guitar, it didn't sound [D] like anything to him.
I always admired [G] the alternate tunings that they did.
And you sit there and you try to learn those songs, and it's impossible, because you can't do it.
And then, [D] _
someone had told me, well, [G] you know, they play in different tunings, I had never
heard of anything like that.
It's a very inventive thing.
Alter the tuning on the [D] guitar, and then to discover [G] things.
It's a way of, like Darrell said, it's a unique sound.
[D] _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [D]
I'm here, things you want [G] to feel, I'll give you anything.
_ Feel it coming, do you wake up on [D] your own, and [G] wonder where you are, and live with all your faults?
[D] _ _ [C] I want to wake up where you are, [D] _ _ [C] I don't say anything at all.
[G] So why don't [C] you say, [G] _ _ [C] _
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _

_ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ Don't you love the [D] life you killed?
The priest is [C] on the phone, your father hit the wall, your mother disowned [Em] you.
Don't suppose I'll [D] ever know what it means to be [C] a man, something I can't change, I'll
[D] live around him.
[C] I want to wake up where you are, [G] _ _ [C] I don't say anything at all.
