Unread post by dmfollower » Mon Jul 12, 2004 2:01 pm

i love playing this song. i think its dadgbd(double drop-d). the solo isn't hard and the song sounds harder than it really is. anyone else play this song?

(-A B A C

(-B B A B Verse

( CHORDS "
( CHORDS Solo
( D D D D Break
(-A B A C Verse

A A A Outro

I separated the parts above to show how the song's parts are arranged.
If you look, you will notice that the middle two sections are the same.
Also, the music under the first verse and chorus is NOT the same as the
rest of the verses and choruses. Very very sneaky!!! :) (And he almost
got away with it!!!)

Enjoy! :)!

P.S. If you want to tune your guitar to Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Db,
then one of the chords would be played (550407) instead of (550405).

Also, for part 'D', there are some different things you can play that
still fit. Here's my favorite:
