Chords

Hi there! This was a request over at Live Love Guitar and I actually had it mostly tabbed from when the album came out, but that bridge part was driving me nuts so I had put it off and forgot about it. Well, it's done now and it sounds good :) **IMPORTANT NOTES** -The intro timing is tough. Just follow the strumming as indicated. -All the verses are 2 BEATS PER CHORD. It's easy to get the timing once you get going (the chorus is different but it's easy to stay on beat, just play along with the song!) -THE BRIDGE: One strum per chord, might take a couple tries to get the timing. Again- PLAY ALONG WITH THE SONG! -For the last part of the bridge, to keep the timing, I put the lyrics for the chorus in there and it really helps having it that way. There's no singing except for that last line indicated with '**'. Hope it makes sense!

Have fun and RATE :) cristy♥twilight *I went back and forth with no capo or capo on 5 and I thought the transitioning between chords was easier with capo on 5 (I keep the strumming on the EADGB strings avoiding the high e.) Transpose up 5 times to remove the capo if you want :)
