To deepen our love it isn't even a fraction
************************************
/ Slide up
\ Slide down
() Rest - imagine there's a note there (but don't play one) to give you the correct timing
(0) Ghost notes - they are there on the recording, but only quietly. Up to you whether you play them
t suggestion: play with thumb
r suggestion: play with ring finger (and so on)
************************************
[Notes]
1. This tab is a composite of the two (or more) guitars that are layered in the recording, so that when
one person plays along to it, it sounds as close to the recording as possible.
2. Since the open '0' notes on the top three strings are all the same note, you can play them on whichever
string you like. I've tabbed it to what sounds most accurate to my ears (for example, in the verse you can
hear from the timbre that it's the thinner second string that's droning the note on the 4th and 6th beats),
but you can switch it up if it's more comfortable.
3. As long as you've got the rhythm down it's not imperative to fingerpick the exact notes in the
exact order. You'll notice that if you just stick with the first pattern in the verse/chorus for the rest
of the section, it still sounds pretty much dead on.
