---------------------------------------------------------------------------- What Makes AMan (x02220@1)- City and Colour ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: C F A# D# G C (2 Whole steps down/4 frets)(plus if you REALLY cba to tune all the way down, you can just put a capo on the eighth fret, same key so it sounds alright, just obviously sounds alot higher) I'll tab it out basically as I hear it/play it, but as with many C&C songs Dallas just tends to play about the whole way through, continually changing it. So while this is a basic pattern, it's not the definitive one, so just play about with it yourself until you think it sounds right. Oh, and you can't really play this properly with a pick, so hand pick it! There are 3 main chords used through out the song (with an exception of a bit in the intro), and i'll pu them here, so that if you really can't follow the tab (which i accept is hard to follow, sorry!) then you can work it out on your own, but i hope this tab will go some way to helping!

You can play this like the intro, but i don't think it's picked as much. Just alternate between strumming the bottom three or so and the top three strings e|---0----0----| B|---1----1----| G|---2----0----| D|---3----0----| A|---3----2----| E|--------3----| e|---0------0-0-----0-0-----0-----0----| B|---1------1-1-----1-1-----1-----1--1-| G|-2----0h2-----0h2-----0h2---0h2----0-| D|-2---------------------------------0-| A|-0-----------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------| Verse 3 Chorus Verse 4 Chrous til end As the song progresses it becomes more strummed, like the chorus, than picked like it is in the inrto. Just play it how you think is best though! I tabbed this from a few videos i saw on Youtube of Dallas playing, which is why I think the tuning is correct, and the basic chords. However, Dallas Green is in fact a God (in my humble opinion), and no two performances are ever really the same. Just play about with it and see what you think. I'm not saying that this is the best tab, casue i'm sure it isn't, but hopefully it will help anyone who wants to play this song somewhat close to how Dallas does. Any suggestions or corrections will be more than welcome! ************************************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note | b Bend | pb Pre-bend | br Bend release | pbr Pre-bend release | brb Bend release bend ************************************
