Some notes about the tab:
In the Verse,
-For anyone struggling with my timing, it's a simple "One Two and Three and" strum
for most of the chords
-Hopefully the shortening of the repetitive part isn't confusing, simply wanted to make
as consolidated as possible.
-Within the group of Cs, he really just does one and hammers on and off, which sounds
but I decided to put it simply.
-The F# during "this is the place" is actually an F#sus11.
In the Chorus,
-Ignore the Highest 3 strings for the Em; it's there to show the easiest finger progression.
-I normally down pick until the B, and then begin down picking again until the C#.
-The second F# is actually an F#sus4 but I had no space.
In the solo,
- I figured I'd add a few extra notes for some fun. Sounds beautiful if you get the
right, which I tried to indicate with the vibratos. Todd Nichols plays around with it in
so try some improv out yourself!
On the final note,
-I didn't know what to end it on but thought this sounded cool. It's hard to get a dark
note on the 4th fret
