Again, Listen to the song for timing and strumming patterns.

This song is VERY easy to play if you listen to the song and know the correct timing. It can be tricky at first, but after about two plays through you should have it down. Keep in mind these are basic notations of the chords that Stephen uses. To replicate his strumming pattern and play each note the correct number of times, you will have to listen to the song to figure it out. I'm not going to sit here and hit the same number over and over again just so you can see the tediousness of playing the song, just listen to it and you'll do fine. Very cool song with interesting timing. I could not find a standard tab out there for this one, considering that the album was just released recently. Seeing as how I have no intention of purchasing Guitar Pro, I figured I would sit down and tab it out so that other guitarists can rest easy knowing that someone took the time to show them how. Cheers everyone. ************************************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note | b Bend | pb Pre-bend | br Bend release | pbr Pre-bend release | brb Bend release bend ************************************
