guitar, although the ending sounds slightly different on the song this is covered up by the extra drumming bit and the rhythm guitar is pretty much the same as the bass but just chords so it doesnt make much difference to the sound if it isnt there. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by Barney (Furry Monkey) Tuning: standarad Intro

Guitarist(s): Albert Hammond Jr. Nick Valens Tabbed By: Tomsk Standard Tuning I saw these guys bang this one out on 'Saturday Night Live' so i tabbed it how they played it. The song is played with two guitarists, but Albert plays more of the lead.... I've tabbed evrything I can hear in this song, still a bit of loose rhythm guitaring I haven't done, so anybody like to add that they're more than welcome too! s = slide b = bend h = hammer-on p = pull-off x = muted with palm Intro - downstrokes G Em G e|--33333333---22222222---3333333333333333----| B|--33333333---00000000---3333333333333333----| G|--00000000---00000000---0000000000000000----| D|--------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| main riff by Albert e|--------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------7---------| G|---5--7--7s9----------7--5--9--5----5--9--5-| D|--------------7b---5------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| e|--------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------7b-----5--| G|----------------------7--5--9--5------------| D|--------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| e|--------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------| G|----0---2---2s4---2-----0---2---2s4---2-----| D|--------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| (bass fill ) ( ) ( e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| ) ( B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| ) ( G|-----------------------------------------------------------------| ) ( D|-----------------------------------------------------------------| ) ( A|-------------------------2-2-2-2---------------------------------| ) ( E|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--------3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-| ) ( ) during this bass fill Albert plays this at 12th fret e|---x----------------------------------------| B|---x----------------------------------------| G|---x----------------------------------------| X 32 D|---x----------------------------------------| A|---x----------------------------------------| E|---x----------------------------------------| G Em G e|--33333333---22222222---3333333333333333----| B|--33333333---00000000---3333333333333333----| G|--00000000---00000000---0000000000000000----| D|--------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| was an honest man e|--------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------7---------| G|---5--7--7s9----------7--5--9--5----5--9--5-| D|--------------7b---5------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| ask me for the phone e|--------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------7b-----5--| G|----------------------7--5--9--5------------| D|--------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| tried to take control e|--------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------| G|----0---2---2s4---2-----0---2---2s4---2-----| D|--------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------| oh, i don't see it that way i don't see it that way bass fill, palm muting on 12th fret....
