Silverchair - Without you guitar tab
Without You: Silverchair
Taken from the album: Diorama
I think the album version was recorded in the same tuning as emotion sickness,
but it's a pain in the arse having to fart around all the time with a tuner.
So I came up with this. I think its pretty much spot on, although there are one or two parts,
which might need tweaking slightly.
if anyone can do better. post a new version

If your playing this in a band, during the first part of the outro get the player to bash out the verse chords (the D riffs) while the lead play the single notes out over the top? and the both players come in for the second part. Play the above piece 4 times and then go into this. End on D
