so far. thanks
Ok, well first of all this is the opening bassline that, basically, makes the entire
song work
G------9------9------9------9-------12------12------7------7---¦
D---7------7------7------7------10------10------5-------5------¦ Repeat this section
A--------------------------------------------------------------¦
E--------------------------------------------------------------¦
The main opening guitar melody echoes this bassline but played an octave down
E---------------------------------------------------------------
B---------------------------------------------------------------
G---------------------------------------------------------------
D------9------9------9------9------7------7------7------7-------
A---7------7------7------7------5------5------5------5----------
E--------------------------------------------------------------- These two sections are
the main basis of the
E---------------------------------------------------------------¦verse tune
B---------------------------------------------------------------¦
G---------------------------------------------------------------¦
D------9------9------9------9------5------5------7------7-------¦
A---7------7------7------7------3------3------5------5----------¦
E---------------------------------------------------------------¦
Then, for a few bars, this tune is replaced in the intro by power chords around the tune
E---------------------------------------------------------------¦
B---------------------------------------------------------------¦
G---------------------------------------------------------------¦
D--9-9-9-9-9-9-x-7-7-7-7-7-7-x-9-9-9-9-9-9-x-5-5-5-s7-7-7-7-----¦
A--7-7-7-7-7-7-x-5-5-5-5-5-5-x-7-7-7-7-7-7-x-3-3-3-s5-5-5-5-----¦
E---------------------------------------------------------------¦
The verse is now played using the notes outlined above
After the verse the 9th fret on the A string is tremolo picked for 4 bars, with a
slowly increasing whammy pedal on the note. This then heads straight into the
chorus which is slightly more complicated. It has a power chord structure but it
involves tapping in a triplet pattern across the B and the E string. This is the
basic structure, though you would have to listen to the song to get the timing right.
E--------14------14->¦--------17------17->¦--------14------14->¦
B--0t12----0t12----->¦--0t15----0t15----->¦--0t12----0t12----->¦
G--------------------------------------------------------------¦
E--------8-------8->¦-------11--------11->¦
B--0t6----0t6------>¦--0t8----0t8-------->¦
G-----------------------------------------¦
This is the current state of the song and the main basis of it.
