The Darkness - I Believe In A Thing Called Love Standard Tuning.
3/11/2003
Right first of all, i am fed up of people saying it is in Drop D. IT ISN'T!!!
It sounds perfect the way i play it and when they play it live, they dont move their hands up and down the fret board likes turds in blenders.
Right....
Intro:
--------------------------------------
--------------------------------------
--------------------------------------
---2--4--4-|2--2--4--2---------------- x 2 (second guitar comes in on the first 4~)
4--0--2--2-|0--2--2--0------0--2--4--2
2----------|---0----------4~----------
Lyrics come on third: CAN'T EXPLAIN ALL THE FEELINGS THAT YOUR MAKING ME FEEEEELL...
MY HEARTS IN OVER DRIVE AND YOUR BEHIND THE STREERING WHEEL...
Note: each sentance should finish, then the second 2 etc comes in (split by |'s)
0
end part of the riff goes like this -----------------
-----------------
-----------------
----------------- Do this where the vibrato (4) comes in on the original.
-----0-----------
--4~---4--2--0---
Pre Chorus: -------------------------------
------------------------------- TOUCHING YOU
------------------------------- TOUCHING ME
---2--4-4-4...----------------- TOUCHING YOU AAAH JUST TOUCHING YOU (?)
---2--4-4-4...-----------------
---0--2-2-2...-----------------
[P.M........]
This can be quite tricky but trust me it is the proper way:
------------------------------------- ------------------------
------------------------------------- ------------------------
------------------------------------- ------------------------
-2--------2--------------2--4--6--4-- x 4 after fourth time play -777--8-9...------------
-2--------0--------4-----0--2--4--2-- -777--8-9...------------
-0--2--4-----4--0--2--4-------------- -555--6-7...------------
First Solo: It is 100% correct (with intro riff played as rhythm)
-------12------------12----------------------------------16^----------------------------------
-12^14(hold bend)-14----14-(realease bend back to 12)----------17---------------14^ slow bend-
------------------------------------------------------------------16--13^r--------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------15-----------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

when a | appears.
I WANNA KISS YOU EVERY MINUTE, EVERY HOUR, EVERY D|AAAAAYY.
YOU GOT ME IN A SPIN BUT EVERYTHING IS A.O.K|.

play chorus riff with both guitars until end when 1 guitar holds the open e chord, the other
plays 17 on the b string and hammering on and off on 2 below the fret ur on, while going down in twos,
then play the highest note you can on the whole fretboard, both guitars then play e and stop.
This is most of my own work, and if any one has any comments or if i have made a mistake then

C You all
