I apologize for submitting this twice, but I realized that I forgot to explain

If you end up posting this though, please disregard the first submission and
use this one. Thanks.

Prechorus (rhythm)
This part is hard to explain with a tab. Also I'm doing this by ear,
so it might not be correct, so feel free to correct. But basically,
you want to play the following chord the whole time:
--8----
--8----
--9---- (C# chord)
--10---
--10---
--8----
Keeping this fingering, play different notes of the chord like so.

someone correct me if im wrong. the key is still in G#. |
| mabelis - 2006-05-24 | Can someone telle me how to play that "harmonic" part?
|
| youngster - 2006-06-07 | | Please view my correction for the intro. I can guarantee it's 100% correct. Just remember that reading harmonics and regular tab is not the same; i.e <3> means on the 3rd METAL fret, like you're playing the harmonic right over the bar itself. And once again, my tab is based on capo 1 or the 1/2 step up tuning. You can't play the harmonics if you don't do this. |
| friendlyfatman - 2006-06-10 | | i have to agree with ronnyb...the cappo on the first fret is the one...... |
| youngster - 2006-08-11 | | Yes, capo 1 = F# tuning. The tab is relative to that. |
| unitedfan - 2006-10-06 | | i think harmonic is that you have to slightly touch the metal bar of the number of the fret.its always right to it. dat means next..dun press it.but slightly touch it .... the metal bar is the bar that space the nuber of fret.. i dunno if you get that ..but it was hard to explain. |
| Sauleth - 2006-10-19 | Ok, these are all wrong. I play this song as follows...
-----------------------------------------------------------------(5)---
-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(5)-(5)-(5)-------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(7)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)---
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: The song is played in some sort of flat, i believe it's Ab. So you need to either tune your guitar down half a step (ie E flat) or play the song in A.
The Pre-chorus bit is a little different than stated on here too but hey play whatever sounds good i say.

| guitarist88 - 2006-11-14 | chords are in Ab chords...
get it all wrong |
| jakobweiq - 2007-03-28 | brothers, u all gt it wrong..
if u watch the DVD carefully, MGC is playing the harmonics on the 5th and 7th frets.. so, i deduce that he tuned his white falcon 1/2 step down. (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, eb) thruout..
so the correct intro r:
eb|-----------------<5>//--<7>//--|-----------------------9h10-----------|
Bb|------<5>//////----------------|---<5>//////------9h10----------------|
Gb|-------------------------------|--------------------------------------|
Db|-------------------------------|--------------------------------------|
*// = im too lazy to type out the actually no. of downstrokes.. so... (^_^) |
