Standard Tuning EADGBe

There is a picking rhythm throughout song that alternates the bass note between the root
and it's fifth, but that note may be played by a second guitar because it's very and
in the song, but to get the feel for it it's something like this:


B E
e|----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----4--x--4-----4-x-4----4--x--4-----4-x-4-----0-x-0-----0-x-0--|
G|----4--x--4-----4-x-4----4--x--4-----4-x-4-----1-x-1-----1-x-1--| etc...
D|---(4)-x-(4)--4---x-----(4)-x-(4)--4---x-------2-x-2-----2-x-2--|
A|--2--------------------2------------------------------2---------|
E|---------------------------------------------0------------------|

Played with a down-up motion. All chords in the song are played like that.
