( this is my first tab , but i hope this helps and makes sense ) .
note : greg laswell plays this song live , half – step tuned down . if you want to play along
the recorded version , have your guitar in standard tuning .
at the fourth stanza , fourth line , beginning at “new song , ” ( Am ) the strumming changes
all down strokes until the fifth stanza , last line at “here now” ( D ) . then go back to
strumming .
towards the ending , the chords are slightly arbitrary , but you can either listen by ear
improvise based off the chords given .
