IT sounds the same but I have always loved how the two high stings are in unison. Well, I saw him play this on Jay Leno and on the VH1 Awards and this is how he plays it. I\'m not sure about the clean part but in the music video it looks like he plays it that way. One more thing; when Mark plays this song live he doesn\'t really add the high e and b strings on the chorus. He just plays the open chords and bar chords as I have them tabbed. But on the album he hits the bottom strings more. Mainly because it is layered guitars. If you are playing this add little fills between each chord. You have to have a pretty good ear to do this though and still keep in time. Okay, I am getting pissed now!! People have already e-mailed me saying I ripped this off that stupid Guitar One or Guitar World . . . which ever mag it was in. Come on! I am tired of it! I know the people who have seen my other tabs and work know I can put this tab up with ease. All you need to do is know the tuning. What I did was transcribe my last tab into this one. You all know what my last tab was (that saw it). You just need to put some different chord structures in the mix. Idiots! All you other people need to get a life!!! It is so juvinile that you all would actually think I would rip off a gutar mag. Get real, I am sick of it . . . Notes: Intro - Play this with your fingers, it sounds like he uses a delay effect. Verse - Octave chords, weeeeee! Chorus - Listen to the song closely for the timing of how to play the chords. I added some of the stuff he did live on Jay Leno. Bridge – Easy octave riffs, simple yet effective. Other - The clean chorus after the bridge is played with a phase shifter; I think, And has some picking in it. The rest is pretty simple. Intro - (clean tone, let notes ring out) -------------0-------------------------------------------------| ----------------0----------------------------------------------| -------4-----------4-----------------------12----------12------| ----------4-----------4----------------12------12----------12--| -2-------------------------0-------10--------------10----------| --------------------------------0------------------------------| -0-0--0----0----0----0-0--0------0------0---0--------| -0-0--0----0----0----0-0--0------0------0---0--------| -5-5--5/4--4/5--5----5-5--5/4----4/9----9---9/10-----| --------------------------------------------------0--| -5-5--5/4--4/5--5----5-5--5/4----4/9----9---9/10--0--| -0-0--0----0----0----0-0--0------0------0---0-----0--| -------------0-------------------------------------------------| ----------------0----------------------------------------------| -------4-----------4-----------------------12----------12------| ----------4-----------4----------------12------12----------12--| -2-------------------------0-------10--------------10----------| --------------------------------0------------------------------| Kick in the distortion and let the feedback roll a little ------------------------------|---------------------------| ------------------------------|---------------------------| -5/4--4/5--5-5-5--4/5--5-5-5--|--5/4--4/5--5-5--4/5--5-4--| ------------------------------|---------------------------| -5/4--4/5--5-5-5--4/5--5-5-5--|--5/4--4/5--5-5--4/5--5-4--| -0----0----0-0-0--0----0-0-0--|--0----0----0-0--0----0-0--| ---------0---0-0--0-0------|------------0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----| ---------0---0-0--0-0------|------------0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----| ---------------------------|--/12--12--12-12-12-12-12-12-12--0--| -4---4---4---4-4--4-4---0--|--/12--12--12-12-12-12-12-12-12--0--| -2---2---2---2-2--2-2---0--|--/10--10--10-10-10-10-10-10-10--0--| ------------------------0--|--------—---------------------------| * * Verse - ------------------------------|---------------------------| ------------------------------|---------------------------| -5/4--4/5--5-5-5--4/5--5-5-5--|--5/4--4/5--5-5--4/5--5-4--| ------------------------------|---------------------------| -5/4--4/5--5-5-5--4/5--5-5-5--|--5/4--4/5--5-5--4/5--5-4--| -0----0----0-0-0--0----0-0-0--|--0----0----0-0--0----0-0--| ---------0---0-0--0-0------|-----------0-0--0--0-0-0------| ---------0---0-0--0-0------|-----------0-0--0--0-0-0------| ---------------------------|------------------------------| -4---4---4---4-4--4-4---0--|--/5---5---5-5--5--5-5-5---0--| -2---2---2---2-2--2-2---0--|--/5---5---5-5--5--5-5-5---0--| ------------------------0--|--/5---5—--5-5--5--5-5-5---0--| * * Right before the chorus do a pick scrape across the top D & A strings Chorus – When you are with me . . . . . .
