"Daylight"
(A Rush of Blood to the Head)
In my opinion one of the best songs on the album.
I'm not to clear as to what kind of effects they use on the guitar.
It almost sounds like a violin. If anyone knows, send me an e-mail (Robber2140@msn.com)
Standard Tuning
/=slide up
\=slide down
You need to use a slide for every part of the song in order to sound more accurate.
