To get a sound close to that on the CD, switch to a humbucking pickup (if you are playing a stratocaster, between the middle and bridge pickups) and use moderate distortion: Chord Progression: Fsus Am C A# =================== Here is how I play these chords: |------8-----------------8---------6-------------------------------------------| |------8---------8-------8---------7-------------------------------------------| |-----10---------9-------8---------8-------------------------------------------| |-----10--------10------10---------8-------------------------------------------| |------8---------0------10---------6-------------------------------------------| |------8-----------------8---------6-------------------------------------------| "Across 50 states of mind, I didn't feel inclined..." Fsus Am C A# - There is a bridge-type thing which follows this pattern: Dm C Am G Dm: xx0231 or x57765 - A lead guitar arpeggiates the Fsus, Am, C and A# chords in the following pattern: |---------1--------1------------0----------------------0---------0------1----1-| |------1----1---------------1------1---------------1------1-----------3---3----| |---2----------2--------2-------------2--------0-------------0------3-------3--| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| And that is really the whole song.
