If Today Was Your Last Day - Nickelback
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Down Half Step
I learnt this on the acoustic and have written the chords the way I've played them.
If using an electric not all the notes of the chords are hit when strumming.
Listen to the song to get the strumming correct. Most of the chords are played the same
the ones used in their song "Photograph" with the high E & B ringing out slightly.
Please Note:- The B chord used throughout the song can be played in either the 7th fret
as tabbed, or in the 2nd fret position, as shown below. I preffered it in the 7th position.
