"Hot N Cold" - Katy Perry
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: [travis]
*This is a catchy song, and it's an easy song to figure out.
*This song is in Drop D, and I know this because I saw this song
live on "Tonight Show With Jay Leno," and the guitarists were playing
the chords in drop d tuning, or power chords.
*This is the version from the album though, not the live version.
*Also, I tabbed this by ear. It is not from another site, or magazine.
Tuning: Guitar 1 = {D A D G B E} (low to high)
Guitar 2 = {D A D G B E} (low to high)
Legend:
. = palm mute
~ = vibrato
() = note is not picked
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
h/ = pick once
p\ = pick once

The intro of this song is just the keyboard.
