Here's an interesting little tune:
First, tune down a full step. Then, tune your low E ( which is now a D)
down to an F ( I think). The way I tell is to go to the fourteenth fret;
it should be the same as the next string which is now a G. Your next
step is to lower the high E sting(which is also now a D) down to a C. I
hope you're following me. It isn't that complicated if you actually sit
down and do it. It should look like this:
C|--------------------0------0-------------------|
A|--------------------0------0-------------------|
F|-----------------7--0------0-------------------|
C|-------------------------7-0-------------------|
G|------5--------------------------5--5>7-5------|
F|------0----------------------------------------|
repeat ('>' means that it's a hammer-on)
The "chorus" goes a little like this:
C|-------------------------------------------|
A|--------5----------0-----------------------|
F|--------5----------0-----------------------|
C|--------5----------0-----------------------|
G|--------7----------2-----------------------|
F|--------5----------0-----------------------|
And at the end of the chorus, you may want to throw in a slide on the
low F up to the 12th fret.
At the end, Hayden mellows out a little, and it goes like this:
C|-------------0------0---------------|
A|-------------0------0---------------|
F|----------7--0------0---------------|
C|-----------------7--0---------------|
G|-----5-------------------5--5>7--5--|
F|------------------------------------|
You may be thinking, "What a mess." But there are some good things here.
First off, i didn't screw up any lyrics. Second, Hayden himself said in
an interview that he doesn't remember how to play this, so he can't
correct me. If I've just confused you here, please write me and I'll try
to make more sense of it. If you want, you can keep your guitar in
standard tuning, and just tune down the two E strings. Remember, the low
6 string should be equal to the 5 string at the 14th fret, and the high 1
string should be the same as the high 2 string on the 3rd fret. That's
how I tune it. I hope that doesn't make things even more confusing.
Anyway, have fun with it.
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 HAYDEN 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.
