I’ve seen way too many tabs for this song already so sorry if you seeing this again. This version however is EXTREMELY EASY TO PLAY! I know you’ll like that.
Tuning: Standard (E-A-D-G-B-E)
There are about 3 guitar parts (acoustic, electric, distorted electric) in the intro and chorus sections.
There are really only 4 chords to this song. E F# B and Bsus4. I’ll only tab out Bsus4 since the rest are fairly common. The second variation sounds a lot better.
Bsus4
E-----
B-----
G--4--
D--4--
A--2--
E-----
Or
E--7--
B--7--
G--9--
D--7--
A--9--
E--7--
The entire song is in 8th notes even the riff. They use mostly down strokes.
Intro
B Bsus4
Distorted electric plays this riff. Play each one 8 times.
The ^ means bend the note up.
E----7-----7----9-----------7--------------------------------------
B----7-----7----11----------7--------------------------------------
G----9^----9----------9-----9^-------------------------------------
D---------------------11-------------------------------------------
A------------------------------------------------------------------
E------------------------------------------------------------------
Verses (Again all 8th notes and down strokes.) Repeat until chorus.
B F# E
Chorus (Part where he sings “Your skin and bones” or something, not up on my lyrics.)
E B
Repeat the chorus a few times than go back to the intro. It’s fairly simple and if my tab doesn’t make sense listen to the song and you’ll hear the changes.
This was tabbed by me, Dan Calandro, with a help from Josh Rubin. If you want more tabs e-mail me (lonezzz@yahoo.com). I have lots of stuff everything from Metallica (!) to Coldplay.
