Drop D (D-A-D-G) Video Lesson

Auto-scroll

Chris and Dom (From Muse) - Dracula Mountain hear everything clear. It`s pretty messy and noisy so don`t expect I have EVERYthing without a note missed, if want to cover it then give it your twist. Intro, till 00:19, some noise, heavy vibrato.
Main riff 00:19 (And repeated later)

00:39, with the high notes between. Now it gets pretty messy. I can`t hear all notes so this is less accurate.
Repeat every section (Most of the time two bars) a few times

You can see that bars A, B, C, and D are exactly the same. First play A-B-C-D-E x2 (Or as many times as you want) then B-C-D-E. So it gets shorter, last times only bar E Listen to the jam you`ll hear it. Then the main riff, (The beginning riff) it maybe has some variation this time. After the main riff play it same an octave lower:
This is the riff on octave lower and an alternative version. Chris
