| In the tab I have written the actual pitch. |
| This tab covers the main verse and chorus guitar parts. This arrangement will |
| allow you to play the song on an acoustic and get the main harmonic and melodic hooks |
| the song. The extra lead parts such as the weeping slide part and reverbed overdubs aren't |
| to play, but I haven't included them here. |
| The actual guitar sound is created using the tremolo unit on a Fender Twin Reverb |
| A tremolo pedal will also help you get the right sound. |
| Live, it sounds like he also uses a delay with hold function to sample this riff and |
| it going while he plays the main verse chords. |
| The rhythm is strummed using 16th beats and syncopation which would be very hard to |
| 1234561234561234 Or 12312312 - if that helps... |
| When you get the rhythm right the chords below spring to life, and the song is actually |
| | F# | F#sus4 |
| Repe | ated throughout using ec | ho sample. |

| On the live recording I think he plays the A and the E an octave higher |
| using the following shapes, but these are harder to play on an acoustic. |
| (Remember to add on 2 frets to your actual neck position for the capo!) |

| The chorus makes use of open strings to get a fabulous harmonic sound. |
| The use of major seventh chords is also quintessential Marr guitar! |
| To my ears, they make the song. This is just brilliant! |
