Barrel Of A Gun

xSong: Barrel of a Gun
Artist: Guster
Tabbed by: Ari Mihaltses
Email: [email protected]

Tuning: Standard Tune, Capo on first fret

This was tabbed by listening to the CD and also watching Ryan's hands from when they
played this song on Conan, I think its pretty right.  Mostly, this is what Ryan plays,
I added little parts (that Adam plays on his guitar) that make it sound more complete.
Listen to song for strumming patterns.

**Note, tabbing is NOT relative to capo, it is the actual frets, so if you see a "1" it
means to leave the string open because the capo has it covered ;)  I debated about which
format to use to write it down and this is the least confusing in my mind.  

**Also, the lyrics I have provided above each section are for being specific about which
part I am referring to and in no way match up with the chord progression underneath.
Listen to the song for the changes.

Play the second half of the second verse just as the second half of the first.

Play the CHORUS one more time and at the end let an F# chord (tabbed above) ring out...
