This is a very simple song, while the earlier version of the tab got it
right they made it overly complicated, here
is a simple version.
-Stephen Adams
The song is just C#, F#, Ab
C# F#
I dont know, just where Im going.....and so on for the verse
and then it speeds up :
Sometimes it is just the same:
C# F#
But in other parts an Ab is added in:
C# F# Ab F#
And then of course individual notes of the chords are being picked,
nothing too complicated. No need to tune down or use a capo or anything,
Its a very simple song. The earlier version posted is below:
Tune down 1 1/2 steps.
Intro
C# F
C#-0--------------0---------------
G#-0--------------2---------------
E--1--------------2---------------
D#-2-2-2-2-2 etc.-2---------------
A#-2--------------0---------------
C#-0------------------------------
Guitar 1 plays these chords throughout the entire song. There is of
course the small changes in each chordm like leaving off the top string
to make it mellower or buzzing on the F chord. But these are the base
chords.
Main song
C#-4------4---4--x--------------
G#-5----5---5----5------7---7----
E--4--4----------6----6---6------
D#---------------7--7------------
A#-----------------------------
C#-----------------------------
Then the strumming comes in, with Guitar one just keeping up with those
two chords. Guitar two picks the pattern off of the same chords, though
the C# is an octave higher and the F has been switched to make it easier
to play (for me). Guitar 2 has the embellishments again, stuff like:
C#-2h4------------------
G#--5-------------------
F--4-------------------
E----------------------
B----------------------
D----------------------
And that sort of thing.
I hope that sounds right. To me it does, but I've been trying different
things for so long I may have just been desperate.
