================================Intro========================================
The shimmering "Don Henley - Boys Of Summer" thing in the background is something
along these lines :
E-------------------------------||
B-5-4---5-4---5-4---5-4---5-4---||
G-----6-----6-----6-----6-----6-||
D-------------------------------||
A-------------------------------||
E-------------------------------||
==========================Verse and intro====================================
Your basic 2-chord progression. Strum to the rhythm. Play them open for the
intro, and then roll it back to single palm-muted notes for the verses.
A C# A C# -
============================Pre-Chorus=======================================
Open power chords.
B C# B C# B C# A B
Then this tasty little lick to transition into the chorus.
E---------------||
B---------------||
G---------------||
D-----1-2--1----||
A-2-4---------2-||
E---------------||
==============================Chorus:========================================
Simple power chords will suffice. I'll synch this up with the lyrics to give
you a better feel for the rhythm.
(A) (B) (B) (C#)
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
(A) (B) (B) (C#)
I'm gonna drive until I break down
(A) (B) (B) (C#)
I'm packing my things and getting outta this town
(A) (B) (B) (C#)
I'm gonna drive until I break down.
============================Bridge & Solo====================================
The backing chords for the bridge and solo are the same as the verse.
A C# A C#
The solo is a total Nirvana scenario...it pretty much just follows the vocal
pattern of the verses.
E-------------------------------------------------||
B----------5~----------5-4~-----------------------||
G-4-6-4-6-----4-6-4-6-------4-6-4-6-4---4-6-6-6--6||
D-------------------------------------6-----------||
A-------------------------------------------------||
E-------------------------------------------------||
E-----------------------------------------------------||
B---------/9~~---------5-4-5--4-----------------------||
G-4-6-4-6-----4-6-4-6-----------4h6-4~~---------------||
D-------------------------------------------1-2--1----||
A---------------------------------------2-4---------2-||
E-----------------------------------------------------||
Then back into the chorus.
=============================================================================
That's pretty much all the parts. There are some little harmonics and other
accentuations that I didn't bother tabbing. Hope it works out for y'all.
Garrett Sales.
