Any corrections and especially the rest of the lyrics are welcome. These tabs a for a six string, but playing them on a twelve string would make ita hell of a lot easier. There are 3 main riffs and an easy set of chorus chords: riff 1 riff 2 |--------------|------------------------| |--10-9--7--5--|------------------------| |--------------|------------------------| |--7--6--4--2--|---5--4--5--7--5--4--5--| |--------------|------------------------| |--------------|------------------------| Main riff/verse riff: (takes a while to get used to the fingering) A B C# E C# B A |--------------------------12----------------------------| |--10-10-12-12-14-14-14-14----14-14-12-12-10-10-10-10----| |--------------------------9-----------------------------| |--7--7--9--9--11-11-11-11----11-11-9--9--7--7--7--7-----| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| just before the chorus play this note twice then go straight into the A chord Chourus chords: C# A B D A A6?
