Tuning: Standard, Capo 3rd fret
I took a look at the other tab, and the guy had it pretty much right in terms of
theory... But I think this sounds a little closer. it may or may not be, but whatever.
This sounds really good on acoustic, but I have yet to try it on electric.
All chords relative to Capo 3:
Acoustic [Guitar 1]:
D: [x 0 0 2 3 x]
A: [0 0 2 2 x x] (although, I like to play it [0 0 2 2 3 x])
D/G: [3 0 0 2 3 x]
Bm: [x 2 0 2 3 x]
Electric (distorted) [Guitar 2]:
B: [7 9 9 x x x]

Well, there you have it. Guitar 1's part is great if you're going unplugged or solo,
and Guitar 2's part is added in if you have a full band you're going with. Enjoy!
--Mike--
So in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying,
let him use it in proportion to his faith.
~Romans 12:5-6
Music is a gift. Are you using it?
