Butch Walker "The best thing you never had" From the album "Letters (2004)" Tabbed by Etni3s. Tuning: DADGAD Comment: -------- Big shout out to Balta for his live version tab. Without it I would have never gotten this right. Well.. I think it's fair to say that this is pretty much a re-write of his tab. This is the album version by the way. Have fun! Now grab your guitar and rock out! Update note: Changed it to DADGAD tuning and changed the chords a bit. // Etni3s, etni3s[at]fan-chat[dot]com -------- Chords D Dmaj7 G E5 F#5 G5 G#5 A5 D|--0---0-------0--(2)--(4)---(5)--(6)--(7)-- A|--0---0-------0--(2)--(4)---(5)--(6)--(7)-- G|--7---6-------7--(4)--(6)---(7)--(8)--(9)-- D|--7---7-------5---2----4-----5----6----7--- A|--5---5-------5---2----4-----5----6----7--- D|--0---0-------5---2----4-----5----6----7--- VERSE 1------------------------------------------------------------------- D Hello, how ya doin' Dmaj7 G What's it like to ruin all my self esteem?
