Sia – Dont Bring Me Down (Guitar Tab)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:majorseventh E-mail:cwarner3000gmail.com Just a note on the song, on live versions he plays F#m 244222 but on the record you can clearly hear F#m7 (open high e string) and to me it sounds most similar to the second chord on Radiohead Fake Plastic Trees 2x0220 so I used this chord below. He plays the E7sus4 with root on second fret of a string hence the parentheses on open low E string. There is a hammer on at the end of some verses which I showed below heard best at 0:24. Also when playing live you can see him play Ebm 6887 and then Bmaj7 played with thumb on low E string 7th fret 7x887x Chords F#m7 2x0220 A x02220 Dmaj9 xx0220 E7sus4 x20200 A x02220 and x0x655 Dm xx0231 and xx0765 Ebm x6887 Bmaj7 7x887x Tuning:Standard EADGBe
