Everything Is You

Eli Young Band

Text File

Ok. I saw Eli Young Band play about a month ago here in Fayetteville AR. I wanted to
this song badly, and the only tabs I found on the internet were in standard tuning or used
Just by listening to the song on the album I knew this wasnt right. I was standing about 
feet away from Mike Eli while he played this song, and I promise you this is as close
100% as it gets.

If you want to test it out, just tune the low E string down to C# and follow the bass
It took me forever to figure this tuning out, but I am sure this is correct.

Tuning (low to high):

C# - down from low e
G# - down from a
C# - down from d
G# - up from g
C# - up from b
C# - down from high e

Essentially all this tuning is is the "DADADD" that has become so popular in recent
but a half step down.

Key:
s = slide
h = hammer
p = pull off
* = palm mute

Intro & Verses:

|---0--0-----0--------------0---0---0------|
|---0--0-----0--------------0---0---0------|
|---0--0-----0--------------0---0---0------|
|---0--0-----0--------0-0---0---0---0------|
|---9--9--s--5--------------0---0---0------|
|---9--9--s--5--4h5-5-------0---0---0------|
                 *          *


During the verse, repeat that twice then play:

|--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------|
|--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------|
|--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------|
|--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------|
|--2--2---5--5---7-----0---0---------------------------|
|--2--2-s-5--5-s-7-s--12--12---------------------------|

    "Memories sneak up on me, wherever I go"

During the above section, use palm muting liberally and listen for the chord changes.
timing is not exact.


Pre Chorus (0:54):
|--0-0---0--0--0--0---0--0------0----------------------|
|--0-0---0--0--0--0---0--0------0----------------------|
|--0-0---0--0--0--0---0--0------0----------------------|
|--0-0---0--0--0--0---0--0------0----Hold the 12th fret|
|--5-5---5--5--5--5---7--7------0----------------------|
|--4-4-h-5--5--5--5-s-7--7--s--12----------------------|

          Be sure to stay on this 5th fret for 2 full
measures, not just one.


Chorus (1:08):

|--0-0---0-0----0-0-----0------------------------|
|--0-0---0-0----0-0-----0------------------------|
|--0-0---0-0----0-0-----0------------------------|
|--0-0---0-0----0-0-----0--Keep playing the 5th--|
|--9-9---7-7----2-2-----5------------------------|
|--9-9-s-7-7-s--2-2--s--5------------------------|

"And its love and hate and all these emotions..."

For the Bridge (What did I do wrong? Nothing, I treated you like an angel.) Just play
chorus riff and listen for the chord changes.
