hey man this is a great tab. just a little something, i think its a little easier and sounds better to play the intro like this:
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------
B|---4h5r4----4h5r4----4h5r4--------0--5\4--2\0--4---4h5r4-----4h5r4-
D|-----------------------------3-3-----------------------------------
A|-3--------0------------------3-3-----------------3---------0-------
E|-------------------3---------1-1-----------------------------------
h = hold
r = release
\ = slide down
one thing...you messed up a little...and mixed up your B and G strings..but i get what you are saying
i like what you did with this
G|-0--5\4--2\0--4-|
but it all depends on what you are use to
plus...each string has a destinctive sound...so putting it all on one string may be easier to play..but it may sound slightly different..
Also, playing it on the G string would sound better..i never thought of it that way...
I always thought that the "B|-0h1-0|" didnt sound quite rite...
i am gonna write another tab cause i have found a couple of mess up with this one....
one big one is the chorus chords...
I play C# Ab C A
its really C# Ab A C
i am also tabbing the second bridge..
i have searched accross the internet and there is not one tab that contains that part...
its kind of hard to hear with Jonathan Foreman singing the notes the guitar plays..., but i kno the bend they do on that part is D|--4b5r--| or A|--9b10r--|
which ever you like more...
yeah thanks man, you did a great job on the tab
