Title Of The Song

by Da Vinci's Notebook

Standard Tuning

(A couple of notes before we begin, I hate to break the flow of a song)

This tab was done on an acoustic guitar and, due to the nature of the
original (a capella), it's not 100% accurate and you might note some minor
differences when playing along with the song.
Feel free to post any corrections.

The way I play this is simple:
In the verses ("Declaration of my feelings(...)", "Enumeration of my various(...)")
I use regular chords.

In the pre-chorus ("Penitent admission(...)", "Request for reconciliation(...)"),
chorus ("Title of the song(...)")
and bridge ("Acknowledgment that I acted(...)")
I use power chords.

The pre-chorus and bridge use some power chords which I'm not sure UG has
the images to, so here is the tab for that little passage (including some
well known power chords):

  F#5  F5/5+   E5  D#5/5+  D5  C#5/5+  B5   E5
e--x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----|
B--x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----|
G--11----10----9-----8-----7-----6-----4-----9-----|
D--11----11----9-----9-----7-----7-----4-----9-----|
A--9-----8-----7-----6-----5-----4-----2-----7-----|
E--x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----x-----|

Where each power chord is played 4 times (4 downstrokes is what I use)

And that's it! Enjoy.
