Tuning: Drop D Tuning, no capo
I think that we're all making this harder than it is. If you've been to a show
and seen the man play, you know that if it sounds simple on the CD, it's simple
for a reason (He likes to get into it live without worrying about fingerings).
That being said this is my take on this song. Simplicity is the key. Have fun with it!!
Intro, verse, Chorus
To change the world...

Variations on the strumming (palm muting, syncopations) make this awesome.
Play with it some.
Bridge

Last time goes back into first part
Outro
I don't believe Dave plays the outro. It sounds like Boyd plucking on the violin.
This song is one of the songs I intend to pay special attention to this summer when
I go to their shows. But if it is Dave playing, I believe his part in the outro goes
like this....

As the song fades the picked part changes....improv at its best. Just jam with the outro.
Have fun everybody!!
