- Ok, so there you have it. This is a killer song and it is also very easy to
- play. There may be some mistakes here because I posted it without listening
- to it while I was writing but I don't think so. I also figured out the piano
- part (and arranged it for guitar) and the guitar solo but I'm not gonna post
- them for the moment. Anyway, they're both fairly easy and are played using
- the E major scale, which is, of course, spelled E F# G# A B C# D#.
- During the verse I play E/G# which I've seen presented often with impossible
- fingerings such as 422100. So, I either play an open position E chord and have
- somebody (possibly a bass player) play a G# note or I play arpeggios throughout
- the verse and then strum the chords in the chorus. If I play arpeggios, I
- usually play: E(022100), B(x2444x), F#m(xx4222), E/G# (xx6450) and A(x07650).
- This is the way I play it but of course it is just one of the many ways to do
- it, so feel free to change it around and experiment and maybe let me know if
- you have comments, corrections, suggestions or any request...
