Lead
Main riff: Well there are 3 ways to play this. THE STANDARD (hardest) WAY: |-------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------| |-------------9-------11-------9------------| |--9-11-11-11---11-11----11-11---11-11-11---| |-------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------| THE INTERMEDIATE (quite rocking though) WAY: |--x-x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x---| |--x-x--x--x--9--x--x--9--x--x--9--x--x--x---| |--x-x--x--x--9--x--x--11-x--x--9--x--x--x---| |--9-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11--| |--x-x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x---| |--x-x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x---| this is played by muting the strings you don't want to play and effectively strumming. Sounds horrendous on an acoustic. THE EASIEST (and just not quite right) WAY: |------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------| |-9-11-11-11-14-11-11-16-11-11-14-11-11-11-11-11-| |------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------| CHORUS: Generally pluck around with an A barre chord, then an F# barre chord, then for the last bit play: ..to LA |-------------13-------------------13-------| |----------------12---------12--------12----| |-11-13-13-13-------13--13------13-------13-| |-------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------| then later on just during the end solo bit, Chad plays |-----------------------------------------------14/-14/\-| |-12-13-14--12-13-14--14/\--12-13-14---12-13-14----------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------|
