There are three parts, one acoustic guitar, one banjo, and one slide guitar.  The slide guitar is tuned weird and isn’t a big part to the song so I’m not going to put that in. The banjo practically mimic’s the acoustic guitar so I’ll put that part in.

Above is what Art does the first couple measures and I put the chords he’s picking for a reason.  He plays this piece a lot and each time it’s a little different and it would be too long for me to put each variation of it down but those are the chords he picks each time.

Bridge- This is the part where he says feel like letting it all go.
This part has the acoustic picking palm muted power chords and the slide guitar doing a bunch of stuff on the twelve fret.  The power chords are Bb5, D5, G5, and F5.

Slide guitar solo- I’ll put it down just for those who want it, the guitar is in open D tuning.

After that is the silent I know the truth part.   After that until the slower part he strikes the chords B7, Em, C, and D and then randomly picks them.  The slower part is like the intro and then the outro is another slide guitar solo like the one above. This is a deep song so play it with emotion.
