ACOUSTIC ALCHEMY - "playing for time" Tablature
Official ACOUSTIC ALCHEMY Tablature & Sheet Music »
These chords are very tough and may take a long time to master, but
if you play along with the song you can hear that they are correct.
Intro: (play this 4 times) (all bar chords)
>>There are 2 guitars playing at once but I wanted to tab out the
harder part that is repeated in the background. The lead part is really easy
and should be easy to figure out by anyone who listens to it enough.
Here it is!!!! Good luck!!!!
>>>NOTE: The "x" represents a very light muffle sound.<<<

-I hoped you enjoyed playing this song by Acoustic Alchemy. Don’t give
up on it because I know it is a hard song. Print it out and play it over
and over if you have to.
-Peace,

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ACOUSTIC ALCHEMY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
