Hi, this is my take on the acoustic version of this great song from the short
documentary On The Third Floor. It can be viewed at this link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fz_t27kOfv0 Hypnotise starts at 1:32.
I've attempted to combine the two guitars to help get the little nuances that make the
song much nicer to listen to than just solid chords :) I hope you enjoy it!
Standard tuning, no capo.

There is also a variation on the A chord played higher up on the fretboard for the
descending part in the verses. The strumming can easily be heard so I will only tab the
chords to play, likewise for the intro. This riff will be denoted A*:
