Mid Air Love Message Chords & Tabs
Poison The well
"Mid Air Love Message"
from Opposite of December
In this intro which i feel is the most brutal 6 seconds
of my life, play this chord steadily strummed with a real
solid feel to get the right sound. Oh yea, get yourself a
REALLY good drummer to sound like that.
The tuning by the way, calls for standard down a step
a.k.a. (DGCFAD).
* My symbols:
~ = feel it.... do somethin cool w/ it.
. = stop it on a dime
^ = arpegio/strum style
Intro:
g#m

* If i get the wrong number of sevens forgive me cause
thats a lot of them, but its tab not music so the rhythm
you should really hear on the song anyhow.
