               HABITS OF MY HEART - Jaymes Young
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:ndermawan

Tuning: Standard
No Capo

Using any inversion of E minor 7Em7 or E minorEm is up to you, still sounds decent.

Likewise, A minorAm or Am7Am7 are also interchangeable, seems ok still.


Picking patterns in appendix.

Also, dat catchy as guitar hook.

============================================================================================

Picking Patterns:
-----------------
Trying to get the rhythm similar to the synth/piano

With the 3 strums after the bass note, the way I play it is using:

My index, middle + ring finger to pluck the strings whilst going
UP DOWN UP (using nails-side on DOWN pluck) and then just tap the strings after to mute.


Verses + Prechorus:
-------------------
  A minorAm        E minorEm      G+G      A minorAm
e|---------------------------------2-2-2-x-----------------|
BB|-----5-5-5-x-------8-8-8-x-------3-3-3-x------5-5-5-x----|
G+G|-----5-5-5-x-------7-7-7-x-------4-4-4-x------5-5-5-x----|
D MajorD|-----7-7-7-x-------9-9-9-x--------------------5-5-5-x----|
A augmentedA|----------------7----------------------------------------|
E MajorE|--5-----------5-------------0-3-----------3-5----------3-| & Repeat


Chorus + Post-chorus lick: Pluck Staccato, don't let ring
--------------------------

  A minorAm     E minorEm     G+G     A minorAm
