Album: We Can't Stand Up Sitting Down
Notes: Figure out the strumming pattern... For guitar 1s part in
the chorus, it IS actually in the albumversion, just really REALLY
quiet... very hard to hear. If you listen to a live version you'll
hear it perfectly though.
Any questions, comments, anything - email me at
f16fightingfalconcap@gmail.com
Key:
Palm Mute - *
Bend string - b
Release string - r
Strike string (dead note) - x
Let ring - ~
Main strumming pattern:
v = down
^ = up
_ = blank
v_v_v^v^_^v_v^v^v_v_v^v^_^v_v^v^v_v_v^v^_^v_v^v^v_v_v^v^_^v_v^v^
(Pretty sure that's right...)

Repeat the last 12 power chords the second time through
Pretty sure that's 100% (except for maybe some timing or strum amounts
but you can figure that out on your own easy enough). Enjoy!
