Standard Tuning - EBGDAE
Passing the Hat
by Cold War Kids
This song is basically a few power notes and some riffs. But in the small break there's
bar chord that you can slightly hear. This allows the guitar to do the high melody on
E string. This tab is modified a bit to fit in the piano as a transcribed add-on to the
part. Mainly because the guitar uses power chords heavily during the song.
(Intro)(^ means accent that chord/note)

E------------|
B------------|
G-9-9--------|
D-9-9----9-9-|
A-7-7----9-9-|
E--------7-7-| (x2)
This is the part that's a transcribed piano part to fit the guitar part. If you want to
to just playing it regularly then just play the intro over the verse.

The bridge is just a strum of four bar chords. I'm not so positive on the names but I'm
sure it's: Am, G, F#m, and Em
