This is a great song and the only reason im calling it "Acoustic" is because I have
have a electric only a acoustic.
And my version can be played on electric too. ;)
The E* and F#* are just played a octave higher like this:
E* F#*
e-------7---|----9-------|
B-------9---|----11------|
G-------9---|----11------|
D-------9---|----11------|
A-------7---|----9-------|
E-----------|------------|
Riff 1
e----------------------|
B---0-3-2p-0-0---------|
G----------------------|
D----------------------|
A----------------------|
E----------------------|
When they do this riff in the song i will call it (1).
And i like it better to slide from 3 to 2 but either way is fine.
