Plastic Hearts Chords & Tabs
im just assuming if your trying to play this that your already pretty good
and can work out how he is plucking the notes, ie most low notes are slapped
with his thumb rather than plucked, and there are a lot of percussive hand
slaps onto muted strings throughout but you can listen to the song to figure
out where they come in
The tuning for this song is DADGAD and he has a
CAPO ON THE 4TH FRET.

The chorus he plays this with only his left hand along with a bass and snare
sound achieved by hitting his right hand on the guitar, but again you can
listen to the record to figure out where that comes in.

So its not great detail but its enough for someone who plays this kind of
thing a lot to figure out exactly what he is doing.
Good Luck!
