Okay guys, this is my first tab, if I mess up somewhere along the way...sorry.
I prefer Drop D
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I------------------------------I
D I---3--3--7--------------------I
A I--3--3---5--------------------I
D I-3--2-------------------------I
That repeats 3 times then...
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I-----------------7-5-7-5-7----I
D I---3--3--7-------7-5-7-5-7----I
A I--3--3---5--------------------I
D I-3--2-------------------------I
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I------------------------------I
D I-2--------2-------------------I
A I-0--0-000-0-0-----------------I
D I------------------------------I
Keep on doing that but after each round of the tab above, move up a fret on the D
string. It would be 2 then 3 then 4 then...
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I------------------------------I
D I-5-------5b-------------------I
A I-0-0-000-5b-------------------I Ending #1
D I------------------------------I
E I------------------------------I Then ending of the rounds are different
B I------------------------------I I will show them all.
G I------------------------------I
D I-5-------7-5-7-5-7------------I
A I-0-0-000-7-5-7-5-7------------I Ending #2
D I------------------------------I
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I------------------------------I
D I-5-------5b-------------------I
A I-0-0-000----------------------I Ending #3
D I------------------------------I
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I------------------------------I
D I-5-------7-5-7-5-7------------I
A I-0-0-000-7-5-7-5-7------------I Ending #4
D I------------------------------I
That whole section (beginning of the main riff on the A string) repeats again then
goes onto this riff.
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I------------------------------I
D I----3---3--7------------------I
A I---3---3---5------------------I Repeats 4 times
D I-3---2------------------------I
Notice that you kinda hold the low D
before you strum the A string and the high D string.
E I------------------------------I
B I------------------------------I
G I-7-5-7-5-7--------------------I
D I-7-5-7-5-7--------------------I
A I------------------------------I

G I------------------------------I
D I-2-------3-------4-------5----I
A I-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0I
