DROPPED TUNING
DE-TUNE ALL ST
D#-G#-C#-F#-A#
The song will
:
RINGS down a s
-d#
then sound in
emi-tone to
the original r
ecorded key of
Ebm
Using a chromatic tuner makes it easier to get this
tuning more accurate
Palm mute the bridge for an extra funky feel
Please IGNORE ANY POP-UP CHORD BOXES the website might
automatically suggest and use the typed chord shapes in the
chord legend below.
Chords are all named as if still in standard tuning:
= 075700 = x35353 = x21203
() = x02020 = x10130 = 022002
= x24242 = x02030 * = x02223
h = hammer-on N.C. = No chords
NOTE: The verses are played as a continuous Em7 chord riff
but the optional (A7) is just shown as a suggestion to make a
single rhythm guitar a bit more interesting if you don't have
the riff as an accompaniment.
Keyboard players can use the transpose function set to (-1)
to display chords in Eb, and just ignore the A7's.
Please take a second to scroll down to the bottom of the page
