------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Happy Alone - Kings of Leon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:Grantburgh Email:[email protected] This tab mainly follows Matthew's parts. Go to www.youtube.com/grantburgh1 to hear how this should be done in accordance to the actual recording. Peace,, and enjoy! \m/(*_*)\m/ Tuning:DADGBe
The song (intro, verse, chorus) is mainly just a D MajorD and G, played as bar chords with the root note on the 6th string,, as is always with kings. Caleb pretty much sticks to the D MajorD and G+G in standard tuning,, while Matthew is in dropped D MajorD im sure, which is what im tabbing here.

here, its hard to work it out exactly, concentrate more on gettin a rythm out of ghost notes and scratches here rather than perfecting your fingering.
