Note 1: You may find it easier to play these notes as follows:
e|-------0-2--|
B|-0-2-3------|
G|------------|
D|------------|
A|------------|
E|------------|
Note 2: This chord and its trailing notes have been tabbed elsewhere as follows,
it can sound nicer when playing alone:
. . . . . .
e|-0---0---0---0---0---0-|
B|-0---------------------|
G|-1---------------------|
D|-0-0---0---0---0---0---|
A|-2---------------------|
E|-0---------------------|
Note 3: On the album version there are two extra measures here,during which Trey plays fret 8 on the B
string.
The rest of us mere mortals can simply play the following line 4 times:
Fm F#6 Gdim G# Adim Bbm Bdim C
e|--------------------------------|
B|-1--4---2----4--4----6---6----8-|
G|-1--3---3----5--5----6---7----9-|
D|-3--4---5----6--7----8---9---10-|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|
(The above two chord progressions are different because they come from different sources. Anyone wishing
to fix this may do so.)
C
My friend, my friend, he's got a knife
My friend, my friend, he's got a knife
The solo continues over the same chord progression. Here is the tab by Chris Temeles
