STANDARD TUNING (E, A, D, G, B, E)

This song was written by me (I am guitarist/vocalist for catalyst) and has been recorded onto a CD, so it IS copyrighted.  But feel free to play with it and use it, just give us credit.  Thank you.

The following chords are to be played softly, in a pattern which accents the low strings at the beginning of the sequence and the high strings at the end.  Strumming is the prerogative of the player.  After I show you the chords, I?ll show you the strumming pattern I use.


The chords are various forms of ?C? and ?A?.  Although I don?t know specifically what chords they are, they are rather pretty in and of themselves.

 |The C Chords|The A Chords|
e|---0----0---|---0----0---|
B|---3----5---|---2----3---|
G|---0----0---|---0----0---|
D|---2----4---|---2----4---|
A|---3----5---|---X----X---|
E|---X----X---|---X----X---|


Like I said before, strumming should be done softly, and in a pattern that accents the lower strings at the beginning of the sequence and the higher strings at the end.

Here is the pattern I mostly use when I?m playing this progression.  I?ll do my best to tab it, but as we all know, playing something and seeing it written are two totally different things.

/ = Slide up
 = Slide down
h = Hammer
X = Don?t play

e|-0-0--0-0?-0000/-0-0--0-0--0000
B|-3-3--3-3--3333/-5-5--5-5--5555
G|-0-0--0--0-0000/-0-0--0-0--0000
D|-2-2-2---2-2222/-4-4-4---4-4444
A|-3-3-3---3-3333/-5-5-5---5-5555
E|--------------------------------

Repeat once, then switch to the A chords

e|-0-0--0-0--0000/-0-0--0-0--0000
B|-2-2--2-2--2222/-3-3--3-3--3300
G|-0-0-0---0-0000/-0-0-0---0-0000
D|-2-2-2---2-2222/-4-4-4---4-4444
A|--------------------------------
E|--------------------------------

Repeat this once as well, but when you start the repeat hammer on the B strings like this:

e|-0-
B|h2-
G|-0-
D|-2-

So the repeat should sound like this here:

e|-0000-0-
B|-3300h2-
G|-0000-0-
D|-4444-2-

Well, that?s it I think.  Let me know what you think.  If you have any questions or comments, feel free to email or IM me.  The information is at the top.  Hope you have fun!
