Yes, I know he plays in C Major, but I have no clue what gauge strings to get for a in that tuning so I figured it out in C Standard. Btw, the low G isn't necessary for this song so I left it out. Listen to song for rhythm. Chorus/Intro chords in C Standard. |------------|----------0-|0-0-0-0-0-0-|0-0-0-0-0---| |5-5-5-5-5-3-|3-3-3-3-3-3-|3-3-3-3-3-2-|2-2-2-2-2-5-| |5-5-5-5-5-4-|4-4-4-4-4-2-|2-2-2-2-2-2-|2-2-2-2-2-5-| |5-5-5-5-5-5-|5-5-5-5-5-0-|0-0-0-0-0---|----------5-| |3-3-3-3-3-2-|2-2-2-2-2---|----------4-|4-4-4-4-4-3-| |------------|------------|------------|------------| Second chord might have a C at the top. |------------|------------|----------- -----|------- ------ ---| |5-5-5-5-5-3-|3-3-3-3-3-3-|----------- -----|------- ------ ---| |5-5-5-5-5-4-|4-4-4-4-4-4-|----------- -----|------- ------ ---| |5-5-5-5-5-5-|5-5-5-5-5-5-|----------- -----|9*----- ------ ---| |3-3-3-3-3-2-|2-2-2-2-2-2-|----9*----10*----|------10*----10*p9-| |------------|------------|0-0---0-0-- -0-0-|--0-0-- -0-0-- ---| (repeat last two measures during intro) Verse (this is why I recommend at least Drop C) |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|9*----- ------ ---| |----9*----10*-----|------10*----10*p9-| |5-5---5-5-- --5-5-|--5-5-- -5-5-- ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|9*----- ------ ---| |----9*----10*-----|------10*----10*p9-| |3-3---3-3-- --3-3-|--3-3-- -3-3-- ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| |----------- ------|------- ------ ---| (Two |----------- ------|9*----- ------ ---| Times) |----9*----10*-----|------10*----10*p9-| |0-0---0-0-- --0-0-|--0-0-- -0-0-- ---| Then the part after the first chorus is just straight-forward palm-muted 8th notes on 5th fret on the low C string, along w/ a few fifth chords thrown in the rhythm. Hardly notating out. After that: |--------- -------|--------- -- -- -- -| |--------- -------|--------- -- -- -- -| |----11--12-----11|--12----12-12-12-12-| |--------- -------|--------- -- -- -- -| |----9---10-----9-|--10----10-10-10-10-| |0-0---0-- -0-0---|0---0-0-- -- -- -- -| The open notes might be fifths in drop tuning. Octaves might have a few slide-ins just feel. Kinda just did this from memory. It's a simple song and I hope this proves useful. * = pinch harmonic. All pinch harmonics are two octaves higher than regular pitch. p = pull-off
