OK this song is bothering the hell out of alot of people cause you
can hear that neat little guitar deal going on but you can't play
it. Well I can't play it either, but I do know the chords and I
know why no one can play it.  He's got his own little world of
tuning and no one else lives there.  One guitar is tuned like this:

(big string to little string) G G D G B D

Tune up to G, then down to G, then you tune the high E down to D.
Easy enough, right?  Well, with that f***ed up guitar he plays the
little things you can barely hear.  You can spend as much time as
you want figuring those out, but spontaneity is the key.  Now if
you don't feel like making your guitar into that thing, these are
chords you can play that are pretty close.  You just play over them
however you want and it'll probably sound right.

OK, here it is:

G5            3 x 0 0 3 3
Dadd4         x x 0 0 3 2
G/B           x 2 0 0 3 x
Cadd2         x 3 2 0 3 0
G             3 2 0 0 0 3
Gmaj7         3 x 0 0 3 2
A7            x 0 2 0 2 0

ok, the verse goes:

G5  Dadd4  G/B  Cadd2

and so on through the verse,  then the chorus is:

G  Gmaj7 Cadd2 G  Gmaj7  Cadd2
G Gmaj7  Dadd2    A7   Cadd2  G5  Dadd4   G/B  Cadd2

and the solo is pretty easy, i suck at tabbing, so im just gonna kinda write what to do for some of this

the long high note that he plays forever is on the B string, at the 15
fret, then it goes down to twelve for a second on the G string, then:

^ = bend up
^v = bend up but then back down to original note
/ = slide

B --2--3--5/8--10--10^v--10--8\ and then :

E ---9^v---------------------------7^v
B--------10-------------------------------8-------------------8
G ------------9-------------9\--------------7-------7/9

ok, that should do it, have the funz, bye
