Tabbed by: Trevor Kirch(eagleear00@yahoo.com)

Drop B tuning

Okay, this is probably my favorite song off East West’s new cd,
which everyone should listen to! It took me about a half-hour to figure out,
and is probably about 90% accurate.

I think the bridge is supposed to go like this...

B |--0-7-8-0-8-10-0-10-12-0-10-12-13-0-13-12-|
F#|------------------------------------------|
B |------------------------------------------|

all that is palm muted,
then you play that but on all three strings like this

B |--0-7-8-0-8-10-0-10-12-0-10-12-13-0-13-12-|
F#|--0-7-8-0-8-10-0-10-12-0-10-12-13-0-13-12-|
B |--0-7-8-0-8-10-0-10-12-0-10-12-13-0-13-12-|

Yeah, i figured this out in drop d tuning, so it sounds closer if you move everything three frets up the guitar.

what is going on here? the chorus just won't work, you'll have to copy and
paste it or something. I'm really sorry.

The bridge riff.
I figured it out in drop B...fun to play

B |-0-5-7-0-7-8-0-8-10-0-10-12-0-10-12-10-|
F#|-0-5-7-0-7-8-0-8-10-0-10-12-0-10-12-10-|
B |-0-5-7-0-7-8-0-8-10-0-10-12-0-10-12-10-|

pretty simple...just gotta play it kinda fast...after a couple slow strums through its easy :)
