G ----2-------1-------2----
D ----2-------2-------1----
A ----0-------2-------2----

The Verses
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/liam_lynch/sir_track_crd.html ]
The beat of the intro and main riff, as you might call it, is very fast.
It goes 1 2 3 4 & 1 2
or down down down down up down down.
so it’s A A A E & E E | A A A E & E E | A A A E
(I named my pager, isn’t that cute? ….)
When it comes to the “key change”
(People give me a hard because I have a wooden ass…)
It starts out as regular riff:
A A A E & E E | A A A E & E E | A A A B7 |
B7 A|
(That’s why there’s only sand paper in the bathroom ….)
A A A E & E E | A A A E & E E | A A A E
And you just continue, fitting it all into the song!
