Tuning: Capo on 4. STANDARD except for the g string is tuned DOWN,not up, down to an E.
When i refer to strings,I will still refer to the third string as the G string despite
it being tuned down to an E. There's a general rhythm of 1, 1-2, 1-2 to the song. I
tried to space the notes accordingly to help you get the feel of the one-two pattern.

*Intro:* Em shape, B shape, then an open A (4th string,second fret)

Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
After the third time he does this little scale. after the 0-2-0-2-0 he gets really quiet
for the next 8 notes
then he finishes with the same pattern that he does right after the hammer-on/pulloff.

The verse is played the same as the intro. Notice the lyrics and measures add up.

*Verse:*

falls on the side of your neck?

eyes as if?

cause all that you are is all that i'll ever need?
