Charted by Richard J.M. Fry for bloody fun, that�s who!

*Plenty of interesting chords here. Just to note, this is not tablature, but I am by far
open to corrections on chord figures. If you DO have chord suggestions, please, let me
know in the comments, but please don�t suggest arppegiated chords. Any time you see an 
asterisk next to a chord, look to notes and notations.*
Redundancy aside, there are two versions included: capoed and non capoed, or, if you�re
lazy like me, just use the transposition tool on the site and move everything four
half-steps up.

*Notes and Notations*
1. The intro: given that there is an arppegiation of D-A-D, that might make you want to
play a D major chord with your pinky on F on the high E string. Technically, yes, this
is how the recording does it, but simply because there is an octave of the fifth does 
not inherently make this intro chord major. As such, I have listed it as a Dm, given that it
is shortly followed by such.
2. The G chord I have listed: I am a staunch believer of dropping the low B on the A
string in a G chord. It just muddies the tone to me. Leaving the high B still present
completes the triad while also making a brighter G; that being said, you can make that 
high B a high D�cutting out the third of the chord is purely aesthetic, so don�t feel inclined
to follow this if you disagree.
3. Then there�s the D I marked in the first and second verse. Rather than dedicate an
entire chord for that one phrase, I just put a D. Personally, I cannot hear a high F# on
the recording there, as that would insinuate a III to ii movement that just sounds 
utterly wrong. Instead, just playing the chord without the third sounds much more pleasant. As
such D:XX023X.
4. Lastly, the E7 might sound like there is an octave D on the B string there, but this
is unnecessary given the lower seventh present in a standard E7 chord fulfills the
seventh necessary for a V7 chord. As to WHY there is an E7 there, it is a borrowed V7/v 
chord. Am immediately precedes E and E7, so this negates any possibility of it being a 
III7, as
a iii-III7 is incredibly uncommon compared to a V-V7/v. This is just theory babble, so 
disregard it if you aren�t interested in that.
4. I usually don�t do electric music, but I just enjoy this band too much to not put
something up.
