version by the way), it is also flat, which is a great annoyance, so the first thing to do to play an A#A# (1st fret of the A augmentedA string), and adjust the tuning until it matches that of song. Then tune the rest of the guitar, of course, normally, apart from tune the BB to one semitone down (i.e same as the third fret of the G+G string), and the top e string semitone up (to an FF), if you're having difficulty muting it. It's really easy to play once you've made these tuning adjustments, but if you don't it sounds awful, and after all it only takes 2 minutes. So, summary of tuning: EADGBbe(or FF) Starting from where the proper singing starts: (Top e string at the top) --x--x--x----------------------------------------------------------------| --0--0--0----------------------------------------------------------------| --2--2--2----------------------------------------------------------------| --3--3--3----------------------------------------------------------------| --1--x--x----------------------------------------------------------------| -----3--1----------------------------------------------------------------| (If you're having trouble muting the 1st string, then tune it up as described above; the isn't actually heard on the track, but it's better than playing a clashing e) Then: --------x-------------------------------------------------------------------| --(7)-(7)-0-----------------------------------------------------------------| --7--8--2-------------------------------------------------------------------| --8--8--3-------------------------------------------------------------------| --5--6--x-------------------------------------------------------------------| --------3-------------------------------------------------------------------| I think the notes in the brackets can just about be heard the second time this is played. Then end on this chord: (x1130x), which is the same as is playing throughout the intro
