Chords: o= open string x= not played G C Dsus2 e 3 o o The main problem with other tabs is b 3 1 3 the Dsus2 chord, which many confuse g o o 2 with simply D. But if you listen d o 2 o carefully you can hear the a 2 3 o difference. Billy uses this chord E 3 o x in Tonight, Tonight too. Other notes: This is played with three guitars. Guitar 1: Phaser/flanger w/delay and reverb. (Only plays the changes. Phase/Flange and the delay are increased after "on my own...)" Guitar 2: Acoustic (strums chords throughout) Guitar 3/piano: Clean Electric (plays small lead riff throughout) Intro: G x3 C Dsus2 G Speak to me... C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 (let Dsus2 ring) G (as soon as "own..") on my own.... C Dsus2 G The earth laughs... C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 C C G C Dsus2 C G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 C C G C Dsus2 C Dsus2 C Dsus2 C G G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 G C Dsus2 C Dsus2 (let ring) G Outro: G x4 For the piano/Clean electric here's what is played: riff 1: e|-------------| Riffs 1&2 are played whenever a G is b|9-8-9-11-9-8-| played pretty much. For the intro and outro they alternate, and for the riff 2: rest Riff 1 is used almost e|------11-8---| exclusively. Just listen to the CD b|9-8-9------11| for the timing and changes between the two. As always comments/suggestions/corrections are welcome! If anyone has any more specific info on the effects used on guitar 1, please email me. Thanks! (Kaazin49@aol.com)
