 Standrad tuning


 Comments: The clean electric which carries the verse here has an almost


 bell-like quality to it. Very nice. The acoustic, which sounds more like


 a 6- than a 12-string, comes in during the chorus and solo and just strums


 along quietly in the background. Great solo, obviously by Paul, that really


 screams. Has a standard move of Paul's when he plays a D-major arpeggio


 (which he likes to add the 4th to) in the E-minor tonality. Note that the


 D minor from the first chorus changes to a Bb for the second. Nice touch.


 (They are parallel chords.)


 Key:


 / = slide up


 \ = slide down


 b = bend (whole step)


 b^ = bend (1/2 step)


 b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)


 pb = pre-bend


 r = release-bend


 t = tap with righthand finger


 h = hammer-on


 p = pull-off


 ~ = Vibrato


 * = Natural Harmonic




 ** = Artificial Harmonic


 x = Dead notes (no pitch)


 P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)


 (\) = Dive w\bar


 (/) = Release w\bar


 Tp = Tap w\plectrum
