This is an easy intro to play, but you have to tune the
guitar down to dropped "D" tuning to do it correctly (for
those who don't know, dropped D is when you tune the lowest
string (the low E) down to a "D" and leave the other
strings alone, so instead of an "E" chord sounding good
with all six strings played, now a "D" chord sounds right
with all six strings played. Anyways, here's the song:
D G
e--------------------------------------------------------
B--------------------------------------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------5------------------
A---7-7--9-9--10-10--9-9--7-7--9-9----5------------------
D---0-0--0-0--0--0---0-0--0-0--0-0--0h5------------------
Also, during the song, since you are tuned to dropped D,
you have to do some things different in the chords..."A"
and "D" should pretty much stay the same, but during a "G"
chord, you don't need to play the bottom string at all, as
the tuning is off and trying to compensate for that is just
rediculously hard (i.e., playing a "G" chord plus sliding
your finger up to 5 on the bottom string instead of the
normal 3), so I just palm mute or avoid the bottom string
and just play the top five there. Also, one more thing, on
Em, you can compensate there by adding a finger to 2 on the
bottom string to make up for the lower tuning (i.e. in a
regular, standard guitar tuning, an Em is played "022000",
whereas in a dropped D tuning, it would be "222000"...kind
of like an "A" chord but moved up two strings, lol. Okay,
I'm done now, lol.
