A few notes about this song. You MUST drop your guitar into a flat E
tuning (one-half step down on each string). As well, listen to the album
for exact timing.

This is the UNPLUGGED version for Alice In Chains "Brother".
I don't think there's any diffrence between this and an Electric Guitar,
and it's not the whole song either, but hell, here it goes:
A7
E |---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|--0/0/0/0-------------|
B |---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--|--3/4/3/2-------------|
G |---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|--0/0/0/0-------------| X2 (repeat this
D |---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--|--------2-------------| 2 more times)
A |---------------0---0------|----------------------|
E |---------------0---0------|----------------------|
Now it's the part when Layne goes: Mmm...mmm..Hmm....
This part,(under this line) is played while the: "Mmm...mmm......"
|----------------------|-------------------------------------------|
|----------------------|-------------------------------------------|
|----------------------|-------------------------------------------|
|(0)-------------------|---5h7-5-------------|-5h7-5------7h9-7----|
|(2)----0-3-5-6h7--8---|--------5h7-5--------|-----5h7-5-----------|
|(0)----0--------------|-------------5h7-5---|---------------------|
|___________|________________________|
(this part comes also after the --5h7-5--...)
There might be a few mistakes, I got this from my memory.
(wich means that it's totaly wrong.......)
If you wanna play this correctly, your gonna have to listen
the CD for timing and stuff....
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 ALICE IN CHAINS 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.
