ibelieveso 1 Report post Posted February 3, 2011 this is going to be a real quick & dirty run down of how he plays this song. capo 6, 1/2 step down. the two alternating notes/chords & the quick little 2-strum before the chorus e|-0---0---0 b|-0---0---0 G|-0---0---0 D|-0---2---4 A|-2---0---5 E|-X---X---X chorus e|-0---0---0---0---0 b|-0---0---0---0---0 G|-0---0---0---0---0 D|-4---0---0---0---0 A|-2---5---7---9---7 E|-X---3---5---7---5 this is 100% correct except for maybe the tuning... it might be whole step down. it's a simple song, as with most of his songs. so, i'm sure you can figure out where the words/strumming patterns go.

Also to play the chorus, the first bit is the same but once it moves up to the top string, i pick the top string then strum the rest of the chord once, and on to the next. so like this: chorus e|-0---x---0---x---0---x---0---x---0---x b|-0---x---0---x---0---x---0---x---0---x G|-0---x---0---x---0---x---0---x---0---x D|-4---x---0---x---0---x---0---x---0---x A|-2---x---5---x---7---x---9---x---7---x E|-X---3---3---5---5---7---7---5---5---0 i hope i didnt just confuse the fuck out of everybody. i suck at tabbing and at playing but this is how i play this song. i also play in standard tuning but i'm sure it sounds fine if not better 1/2 step down.
