Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Feedback is welcome. This is as close as I've been able to get but it's definitely not perfect.
UPDATE:
Thanks to user "spectrum-" for suggestions -- tab is more accurate and complete now. :)
- Added missing A chord in parts of chorus and optional Bm and Em variations in chorus.
- They help mix up the Em sound & allow for a Bm-->A slide that is aurally delicious.
-- EASY OPTION --
If you can't play barre chords, click the Transpose arrow down twice, and capo the 2nd fret.
The chords become Am G Dm F.
It sounds a bit lighter without the heavy/bass notes, but is much easier and sounds very close.
Chords: Chorus (optional):
Bm A Em G Bm Em
e|----2-------5-------0-------3----------------7--------7--------|
B|----3-------5-------0-------3----------------7--------8--------|
G|----4-------6-------0-------4----------------7--------9--------|
D|----4-------7-------2-------5----------------9--------9--------|
A|----2-------7-------2-------5----------------9--------7--------|
E|----x-------5-------0-------3----------------7--------x--------|
NOTES/TIPS:
- Focus on the lower/bass notes. The song is heavy-sounding, so try to bring out the bass.
- I like to mix in mutes and slaps instead of just strumming -- again, adds some boom!
- You can also pluck strings from low to high. It's good, but not perfect, with these chords.
- Each verse chord starts just before lyrics, so it's easy to get started and find the timing.
- The song repeats 4 chords, so just get comfy with their timing, then the lyrics are easy.
