Hello everyone.  This song is so moving... I'm pretty excited about this version.  The
I laid it out has kind of a classical feel.  Make sure you have good plucking technique.
all,
keep it 'krispy.'

Anyway, there was a bit of a problem.  The little semitone thing that gives the 
song its vulnerability
(i.e., 'bum... bum... BLANK... bum) does not sound as nice on a guitar as it does piano.
I'll include the option so you can decide for yourself.

This song has a lot of factors to it.  I'm going to divide it up so it doesn't look so scary.

Okay.  Here is the melody.  It is centered around a D chord.  Again, I've tabbed out the
note,' (the F on the D string) so you can use it if you want.

E|------0---2---5-------0---2---7-----|
B|--3---------------3-----------------|
G|----2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2---|
D|----------(2)-----------(2)---------|
A|------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------|

Now that you have learned the melody, you just need to play the baseline.  Although
fingering might be a little awkward, the concept is pretty easy.  It is just a step by
step walk down from D all the way to F.  Each base note is played at the beginning of
each melody bit (except for the jump from F to E, but I'll get that later).

E|-----------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------|
D|--0--------------------------------|
A|-----4--2--1--0----------------0---|
E|-----------------4--3--2--1-0------|

I would just walk down that a couple of times while listening to the song to familiarize
yourself with the baseline.

Ok, back to the F to E thing... they are smashed together on purpose.  You play them both
in the same melody bit.  It will make more sense in the big tab.

This is 'the machine tab.'  Base + melody.  It's scary looking, but if you broke it down you
should be fine.  Just work through it.

There it is.  You're welcome in advance for all the ladies you are going to
woo with this little piece.
Cheers,
