Torn chords by Toad The Wet Sprocket

Torn
by Toad the Wet Sprocket
off the _Pale_ album

contributed by Ryan Houlette


To do the cool shimmering guitar at the beginning, turn your volume
knob down low and strum the chord, using your pinky finger to turn
up the volume knob.  If you do it right, you'll get virtually no
attack on your strum.

[the riff]
The riff doesn't sound good unless it's backed by a bass.
If you're just playing this acoustically, play the chords. :)

NOTE:  I originally played this song as a Bm D G Bm A G progression,
        and, acoustically at least, it sounds fine that way.  It
        can be easier than barring the Gbm.
