Since there isn't as many people who know how to do the song I'd thought I'd show it, I figured out its standard tuning with a capo on the first fret on Bilinda's guitar and EBEF#Be tuning on Kevin's guitar, seen in here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCo5N1P4BIM this is how Bilinda and Kevin do it live. I'm playing with a capo with both the verse and chorus, both sound exactly the same to me with or without the tuning. It's just easier that way for me. You may seem to notice I'm not fulling baring in the chorus, because I kept screwing up and starting over while trying to record this, that caused my hand to cramp and my fingers hurt like hell lol ok anwyay.... This song is a little tricky to play, the entire song is played with a whammy arm and you don't have to use the bar chord as much, most of the tabs are wrong anyway. I'm using my amp distortion for the song. There's a lot of settings on it and this is the closest sound I could get off it and It sounds pretty good loud. I tried to match the tone as close as I possibly could.

This was the original video I made, youtube wont let me upload this other ones because of that stupid wmg copyright claim. I think this is the 6th time I tried to upload this

  • whats ur amp setings/

  • @blackbeltbrown just random settings with little distortion

  • What does your playing alone sound like though?

  • sorry for my comment for being so late, well sounds like any other fender I tried, most of my favorite bands use cheap guitars anyway so it all works out
