Notes: Again, I separated the verses to emphasize the musical structure
of the song, and the places where the music repeats. You can notice
that in the 1st Verse, there is a section added (C x 2) that is not in
the 2nd Verse. That was to give more space between the Intro and the
1st Verse. Section A is always followed by section B, and because
section B has an extra beat in it, the song can't go back and start the
Verse on part B (without being very obvious). So, part C is just played
an extra 2 times. The Bass line is very sneaky because even though some
of the notes change from measure to measure, they only change by a
half-step! If you turn up the bass on your stereo and listen closely,
you'll understand. Playing just the bass notes along with the song
makes it even easier to spot. Enjoy!
Here is how Chris York (dyork@parlorcity.com) thinks part 'A' is played:

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 DAYS OF THE NEW 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.
