BACKSTREET BOYS - "i want it that way" Tablature
Official BACKSTREET BOYS Tablature & Sheet Music »
Artist: Backstreet Boys
Title: I want it that way
Tabbed by: Matt Corkum
(radiohead98@yahoo.com)
Drop D Tuning! (Tune your E string down a whole step (2 notes)
to D. The 12th fret of the E should be the same the open D string.
Also, the recording itself is tuned down approx 1/4 step, so you'll
have to do the same if you wish to play along.
This is just the basic tab. There are a couple of octave fills, etc.,
but this will get the song going.
Guitar Chords are listed above the bass tabs and in conjunction with
the lyrics.

Enjoy.
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 BACKSTREET BOYS 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.
