Tuning:EADGBE
From the 2003 album of the same name. CT also recorded the song in Japanese.
Intro:
The beginning of the song has a "drone" type sound that can be done on guitar. As you
play the E chord mute and pull off at the bridge using the ball your hand. That's the
easiest description I can think of. Bruce Springsteen does it a lot with his acoustic
songs if you want more examples.
