We have an official Gone tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
First off, I must give credit where its due. This is based off of ZososoZ's Tab,
however I had a discrepancy with the notes played. I think that you play the 1st,
2nd, & 3rd strings more. I also agree with RalfE that there is an extra open note
that is played but open D does not sound correct. So here is my version of it. And
it sounds pretty flawless to me. This can also be played with the Black-Eyed Peas'
song Gone Going this they do sample this song. For any problems/comments, e-mail:
