A|---12b(13)-----------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| To get the change in pitch on the "12b", gently brush the tip of one of your fingers (on your picking hand) on the high D string somewhere above the neck pickup. If you do it right (and it might take a while to figure it out)you'll get that change in pitch like in the song. e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|(6x) D|-1-1-1-11-0------------1-1-1-11--------------------------------------------| A|-1-1-1-11-0------------1-1-1-11--------------------------------------------| D|-1-1-1-11-0-0-00000-0--1-1-1-11-0-0-1-2b(3)--------------------------------| e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|(2x) D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|-----/12-0-0-12~-0-0-0-13-0-0-13~-0-0-0-5-0-0-5~-0-0-0-6-0-0-7~------------| e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|(2x) D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------7-----------------------------5--------------| D|---/8-0-0-7~-0-0-7~-0-0-8-7-8---8-7-0-0-7~-0-0-7~-0-0-5-7-8---7------------| high notes played near the end of the song. e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-14----10---9----7---------------------------------------------------------| D|-x-----x----x----x---------------------------------------------------------| A|-12----8----7----5---------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Didn't do the note count on that last part, shouldn't be hard to figure out.
