This song is pretty simple if you listen to the CD a few times you'll get the strum pattern which is hard to actually write out, but the riff and progression is easy. The strums sometimes change; so i put in what i heard. Also, the tabbed out strum is just supposed to give you a good idea of what to play, or you can listen to it and figure it out easily. If you cant play the keyboards you're missing out on a cool solo in the middle of the song. But anyways this song contains 3 barred chords which are these: C: E---- G: E---- F: E---- B---5 B---3 B---1 G---5 G---4 G---2 D---5 D---5 D---3 A---3 A---5 A---3 E---- E---3 E---1 This is the main riff played most of the song in the verses and four times in the intro: Note: partway in the 3rd verse Dave switches to a strum instead of the riff C E------------------------------- B--------5---3-3---5------------ G--------5---------5------------ A couple times D------------------5------------ A---3--------------------------- E------------------------------- "Ten years ago...

This is the prechorus, play notes in parenthesis twice, except for the slide, play that only the 2nd time (I thought i'd tab out the strum too, but any strum similar will sound fine): F C E-[------------------]---------------------------------------- B-[-1----1----5----5-]-5--5-5-5--5--5--5----5----5--5-5-5--5-5 G-[-2----2----5----5-]-5--5-5-5--5--5--5----5----5--5-5-5--5-5 D-[-3----3----5----5-]-5--5-5-5--5--5--5----5----5--5-5-5--5-5 A-[-3----3-(2/3)---3-]----3------3-----3----3----3------3----- E-[-1----1-----------]---------------------------------------- "And she walks...
