This is played in an easier tuning, and closer to standard so guitarists with lighter strings can still play this song.Was this info helpful?
Difficulty: beginner
Capo: no capo

We have an official Wild Side tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Please read! This tab is not quite in standard tuning. The tuning is
(D G D G B e). I have not seen a tuning similar to this, so I named
it Drop D/G (as E drops to D and A drops to G). This is technically
the incorrect way to play this song. Motley Crue has always tuned to
D Standard (D G C F A d), but this version of the tab is for those
using a lighter string than needed for a full step detuning by allowing
every sting to remain standard, except for two. Rock on. \m/
