This tab is mostly one of the best tabs in the world hahahaha
I don't get this tab, it's to difficult..
I am new at this whole guitar thing but am learning quickly. What does the 1-3-1 mean with the solid line above it in the tab. How is it played? Other than that, this is an awesome tab, not bad for my 3rd song to learn.
this one comes pretty late and you'll probably already know how to play this ;)
you play it by playing C (1) and pressing your finger on 3 shortly to produce a short D tone :)
Sorry for that bad description but my english isn'T that good in guitar things :/
this is a great song i learned it very quicky for my 2nd that ive learned in a week and i can sing it yeah yeah cheer!!!
i always found jalepnos to be spicier than red peppers...
i havent tried 2 play the song yet but i just wanted to say that i luv u and ur sexy and all and i do have a capo so im good to go but id prefer the good version cuz im good enough 2 play it cuz i can play alot (enter sandman solo) so make the hard version of the tab but because i luv u im not gonna say f**k u by** or a*sho** because i luv u u sun of a bych hore
it was a good tab the first time i saw it ..in my hal leonard book! And another thing, the part where you sing under the bridge down town... you play the part where the rhythem slashes indicate the other way is for the outro. 002220,005550,x55430,x33210,= Under the bridge=002220, Down Town=005550, is where i=x554320, drew some blood=x33210, now thats guitar 2 which supplies a fuller richer sound and is also acoustic, if youve ever heard the rare acoustic version that is also how he plays it. Any questions feel free to e-mail me im a chilli maniac.
WEED!!!!!!
Brilliant! This is the best tab for this song I've ever seen.. Must have taken forever writing it.. 0.o
