Hey everyone! Few notes about the song!

I love chugging down on those power chords during the verses! There is no guitar present in the studio recording during those parts. To make this a fun playable song, I approached it in a way that makes the whole song enjoyable to play. And I kept it simple as true as I could to the original recording.

During those parts, I noticed after the video editing process that I changed up fingers while I was palm-muting the C5 chord. Because I was thinking ahead about having to use my pinky to accent on the same chord before switching to F5 and G5. Normally I form the C5 chord using index, ring, and pinky. Just a very minor thing I wanted to point out that I’m sure most of you will know the difference of anyway.

Basically, I’ve tabbed out all of Eddie’s guitar in the studio take and on top of that, added my own touch in other parts of the song where his guitar isn’t present. All in an effort to make it an enjoyable song to play! And I tabbed out some of the keyboard parts as well for those who like to mess around with that kind of thing. Near the end.

Enjoy!
