Tabbed By : Wilfridberry

Tuning: Standard E A D G
INTRO
Often tabbed inaccurately, possibly due to the fact it can be played easily
up or down the neck, and Chris has a habit of switching places, I will tab it
down the neck as I find it easier to play. very simple timing-wise, this is
all in semiquavers (sixteenth notes) - keeping tempo is another matter though
- watch out for the third bar, it's tricky to keep pace with on the
recording. Keep your first finger hovering over fret 5, and use the one
finger per fret rule to minimise awkward wrist movement.

|--------------------------------------|-------------------------------------|
Which ever tab is easier for you, play it through 4 TIMES.
FIRST VERSE
The first verse is 8 measures long, the first 4 are identical to the verse
riff, the last four are also identical except for the very final measure
which changes dramatically to signal the chorus coming. I have tabbed it both
up and down the neck, choose either depending on your earlier choice.

FIRST CHORUS
A slightly trickier rhythm repeated through each measure in the chorus; the
first note is a quaver (eight note), this is followed by five semiquavers
(16th notes), then another quaver, then seven semiquavers - to make this
easier I will annotate underneath the tab with a Q for quaver or S for
semiquaver. Also, there are two hammer ons in each measure. This rhythm
changes on the eight bar, which plays only semiquavers, then you play the
four bar intro.

SECOND CHORUS
Similar to the first chorus, except instead of jumping into the verse riff
toward the end it goes into an awesome little breakdown preceding the guitar
solo. As before, all in semiquavers except the 7th fret A string at the end
of the eighth measure, which is a crotchet (1/4 note)which i annotated as a C.

GUITAR SOLO
The bass that shadows Matt's solo is a combination of the bass parts used in
the verse and first chorus, which is followed straight after by the third
chorus.

THIRD CHORUS
Almost identical to the second chorus, except the last few bars of instrument
are different as it is the end of the song. The rhythms are the same as the
ones we have used before, except the very final bar which is a crotchet then
a three beat rest.
