Artist: Tesla Song: Come to Me CD: Into The Now Transcripted by: Brian Zandy (inzandity@charter.net) Tuning: Standard Comments or questions? Feel free to E-mail me at anytime. Performance Notes: The strumming patterns and palm mutes are clearly heard on this recording, listen to it carefully to pick out the different variations. Let the chords ring out on the intro. For most of the main verse use the palm of your hand and mute the chords between strums. Let the chords ring out for the pre-chorus and chorus.
