G|————————————————————————————————|
D|————————————————————————————————|
A|11—————33——————————4————————————|
E|————————————————————————22222222|
Then you play the main verse riff just once again
Chorus Riff Again x2
Bridge— now Im not really sure about this part I know when you go up to the 11th fret,
for sure, but mainly I just try to listen to the chord changes and switch between the
and 4th fret and fidget around.
G|——————————————————————————————————————————————————————|
D|————————————————————————————those are 11s not 1s————|
A|66666666444444444666666661111111111/4—————————————————|
E|——————————————————————————————————————————————————————|
Rest for however long, its pretty clear when you come back in
A|444444444444444444|
and you just play that note for sometime while youre sick part is goin.
What I think sounds really cool is the last measures of the A|444| is if you play a C#
scale and come back down, you dont have to do it if you dont want to and its not in
song, but I think it sounds really good, and just in the last 2 measures, so you have to
at a reasonable tempo. Ill tab out that scale in case you dont know it/
G|—————35653———|
D|——346———643——| Remember totally optional, dont do it if you cant do
A|46—————————64| it right
Then you play a variation on the chorus when the vocals come back in:
We swing and we sway I dunno if these are the right numbers, but listen for the chord changes
G|————————————————————————————————————————————————————|
D|————————————————————————————————————————————————————| x2
A|4444444444444333333333333311111111111110000000000000|
E|————————————————————————————————————————————————————|
Then you play the real chorus verse twice
Then there are some outro chords and the bass ends on A|4|
