BAND : Good Charlotte SONG : My Bloody Valentine TABBER: arickbakken@hotmail.com *=pm ~bend note up and down n.c.=no chord there is a 'haunting' sounding effect in this song. i found something on my Zoom pedel that sounds like it. Zoom calls it 'octive pitch'. their discription is "Wild and heavy lead sound with up/down octive unison". so if you have something similar, use it. if not, you can do the "chords" in the pre-verse and whatnot with open d in between them as shown below. it adds a little more fullness to the "chord" but doesn't quite have the same effect. also note that the 'haunting' pre-verse thingy isn't in major or minor scale. this automatically sounds awkward and creates dissonance. that must be why GC chose to use it. that's something you can think about when you're writing your own creepy song. cheers.
