The intro goes something like this.... e ---------8-8------------------------------------------------------------------------| B ---5-8-5-5-5-5-5-8-5----------------------------------------------------------------| G ---6-6-6-6---6-6-6-6--REPEAT X4 W/CLEAN TONE----------------------------------------| D ---7-7-7-7---7-7-7-7----------------------------------------------------------------| A ---0-0-0-0---0-----0----------------------------------------------------------------| E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| The next part with the drums and bass is the same except distorted.The verse is also the same with this riff at the end of each block... e ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G --4-4-x-x-x-x-7-7-------------------------------------------------------------------| D --4-4-x-x-x-x-7-7-------------------------------------------------------------------| A --2-2-x-x-x-x-5-5-------------------------------------------------------------------| E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Just listen to the tune to figure which bit goes where. Next is the chorus. I`m not too sure about this but it`s pretty much right I think..... e ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G ------------10-10-9-----9-9-9-/13-13-13---------------------------------------------| D --7-7-7--10-10-10-9-----9-9-9-/13-13-13---------------------------------------------| A --7-7-7--10-8--8--7-----7-7-7-/11-11-11---------------------------------------------| E --5-5-5--8--------0-----0-0-0-------------------------------------------------------| You`ll have to listen fo the strum. I think the 11 power chord is wrong but I`m not sure. The bassline basically follows the power chords but in the verse it goes..... E ---/555555-/555555-/555555-/555555---- I`m not sure about the amount of times the A is played but you can listen for that. The verse is exactly the same as the root note of the power chords. For the July She lied... bit I play the notes from the chorus in the same order but different time and omit the high G#.
