Nice man. Hey since you don't have an acoustic guitar do you still know the chords for it?

[ibeNat]

this is beast, thanks man!

Thank you so so so so much. You are awesome :) And adding the actual text of the tab helped tremendously. Hat's off to you sir!

One more thing! I think you forgot to add the electric guitar part during the bridge: Jonny just strums these barre chords and lets them echo as far as I can tell:

Bbm - 688666, Fm - 133111, Bbm again, then Db - 9,11,11,10,9,9

This is brilliant! In regards to the slides from the 16th to 13th frets, what is your opinion on doing pull-offs instead? I think when Chris plays it on the acoustic, that's what he does (I'm used to doing pull-offs too since I have a non-cutaway acoustic).

Also, for the lower guitar part, do you know if there's a true/accepted part like there is for the higher line (which Jonny and you play)? Just wondering, or did you ear it out? Either way, thank you!

@gasball0 thank you! doing pull offs will give it a different feel and sound, when using all of these effects slides will leave less spaces between notes and pull offs will make it sound like you are playing even more notes than you actually are, either is cool ;)

I don't know, i worked it out by ear paying a lot of attention to when a slide or a pull off was made, this is as close as i could get.

Awesome man!!! I used to know this riff but I have to relearn it now from u ;)

Is ur G string out of tune slightly??? Or is it a different tuning

[IIIICarLIIII]

@lotsaEntertainment glad you like it! yeah it could be, even though i tune before recording the intonation could be messed up or sometimes i press the string too hard, it's standard tunning.

good luck! ;)
