Tina Dico - Sacre Coeur
-----------------------

Tuning is G#D#G#C#D#G# which is DADGAD with Capo at 6th fret (sometimes she also plays 
it at 7th fret). There are different versions of this song played live. Would have 
never figured it out if there weren?t a version available where she tunes her guitar.

Chords (nevermind their names, they?re more or less randomly just to give them a name). 
Note the muted strings (x) for strummed chords.

E*        x12000    Ab5 (133xxx@4)       000200
Gb*       x32000    Ab7sus4 (xx1122@1)   x30000
Abm*      x53000    Emaj7(no5)  x10x00
Abm*/G#   053000    DbmAdd9     x10000
Abm*/C#   553000    Ebsus4      002x00
                    Amaj7(b5)   x60000
                    Absus4 (xx1124@1)    x50000 (sometimes maybe 550000)

Verse
-----

This is the general picking during the verses:

p       p        p       p
    |----------------|----------------|
    |--0------0~----0|--0------0~----0|  h = hammer on
    |---0-------0--0-|---0-------0--0-|  p = pull off
    |----20~-----20--|----30~-----30--|  ~ = let ring
    |1~-----3~-------|5~-----5~-------|
    |----------------|----------------|
     E*     Gb*       Abm*

Note that within this tab each column or character represents a 16th note to give you 
the rythm and that for example "20~" along with the "p" means to hit the 2 for one 
16th, then pull off to 0 andlet it ring for additional two 16th.

This progression is varied from time to time, for example to something like this:

p       p        p       p                  p       p        p       p
    |----------------|----------------|         |----------------|----------------|
    |--0------0~----0|---------0~----0|         |---------0~----0|---------------0|
    |---0-------0--0-|-----------0--0-| or this |-----------0--0-|--------------0-|
    |----20~-----20--|----30~-----30--|         |----20~-----20--|----30~-----30--|
    |1~-----3~-------|5~5~---5~-------|         |1~~----3~-------|5~5~---5~5~5----|
    |----------------|----------------|         |----------------|----------------|
     E*     Gb*       Abm*                         E*     Gb*       Abm*

or this:

p       p        p       pp                 p       p        p       p
    |----------------|----------------|         |----------------|----------------|
    |--0------0~----0|--0------0~-----|         |--0------0~----0|--0------0~-----|
    |---0-------0--0-|---0-------0----| or this |---0-------0--0-|---0-------0----|
    |----20~-----20--|----30~-----320~|         |----20~-----20--|----30~-----30--|
    |1~-----3~-------|5~-----5~-------|         |1~-----3~-------|5~-----5~-----5~|
    |----------------|----------------|         |----------------|----------------|
     E*     Gb*       Abm*                         E*     Gb*       Abm*

You can also play other combinations of these pattern. Just get the rythm and play with it.

Sometimes (2. verse) she hits the empty lowest (6th) string hard with her thumb along 
the first "5~" in this pattern to give it an accent:

p       p        p       p
    |----------------|----------------|
    |--0------0~----0|--0------0~----0|
    |---0-------0--0-|---0-------0--0-|
    |----20~-----20--|----30~-----30--|
    |1~-----3~-------|5~~----5~-------|
    |----------------|0~~~~~~~~-------|
     E*     Gb*       Abm*/G#

Or reduce this pattern to single bass notes on 4th and 5th string (3. verse).
If you can sing like her you can also just stop playing guitar at all and just sing ;-)

At the beginning or in some versions, where she does a short break between
the verses, at the beginning of each verse she hammers on the first note:


     h (x2444x@1)  p       p                                         h (x2444x@1)  p       p        p      
 p
    |----------------|...|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|...|
    |--0------0~----0|...|----------------|----------------|--0------0~----0|--0------0~----0|...|
    |---0-------0--0-|...|----------------|----------------|---0-------0--0-|---0-------0--0-|...|
    |----20~-----20--|...|----------------|----------------|----20~-----20--|----30~-----30--|...|
   0|1~-----3~-------|...|5~~~~~----------|---------------0|1~-----3~-------|5~-----5~-------|...|
    |----------------|...|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|...|
     E*     Gb*           Abm*                              E*     Gb*       Abm*

Without the break it can look like this:


     h (x2444x@1)  p       p            p       p   h (x2444x@1)  p       p        p       p
    |----------------|...|----------------|----------------|----------------|...|
    |--0------0~----0|...|--0------0~-----|--0------0~----0|--0------0~----0|...|
    |---0-------0--0-|...|---0-------0----|---0-------0--0-|---0-------0--0-|...|
    |----20~-----20--|...|----30~-----30--|----20~-----20--|----30~-----30--|...|
   0|1~-----3~-------|...|5~-----5~-----0~|1~-----3~-------|5~-----5~-------|...|
    |----------------|...|----------------|----------------|----------------|...|
     E*     Gb*       Abm*                   E*     Gb*       Abm*

The last time time she plays this pattern before the refrain she uses a C# as a bass note:

p       p        p
    |----------------|----------------|
    |--0------0~----0|----------------|
    |---0-------0--0-|----------------|
    |----20~-----20--|----30~---------|
    |1~-----3~-------|5~~~---5~~~~~---|
    |----------------|5~~~---5~~~~~---|
     E*     Gb*       Abm*/C#

Refrain
-------

For the refrain there are two different versions as it can be picked or strummed. Let?s 
deal with the picked version first. It is build around the same chords just in another order.

p       p        pp      p               p       p        pp      p
    |----------------|----------------|      |----------------|----------------|
    |--0------0~----0|--0------0~----0|      |--0------0~-----|--0------0~-----|
    |---0-------0--0-|---0-------0--0-|  or  |---0-------0----|---0-------0----|
    |----30~-----20--|----320-----20--|      |----30~-----20--|----320-----20--|
    |5~-----3~-------|1~~----3~-------|      |5~-----3~-----3~|1~~----3~-----3~|
    |----------------|----------------|      |----------------|----------------|
     Abm*   Gb*       E*     Gb*              Abm*   Gb*       E*     Gb*

Both variants are interchangeble, so you might also play the first bar of the first 
version with the second bar of the second version and vice versa.

This pattern is played twice until "haunted" and then it continuous with:

pp      p        p       p        p                             switch to bass note picking
    It's all there if I want it
            Emaj7(no5)  Ab7sus4 (xx1122@1)   But the sad thing is
                 Absus4 (xx1124@1)   Emaj7(no5)
    I don't know which I prefer
                                Ab7sus4 (xx1122@1)        Abm*   (refrain picking)
    As I sit here and watch the sun set on Sacre Coeur
    Gb* E* Gb*  Abm* Gb* E* Gb*
    oooohhhooo ohhooohooohh
    Abm* Gb* E* Gb*
    Yeahhh....  *Didndai*
    Abm* Gb* E* Gb*
    *Didndai*
    Abm*
    *Didndai*
