I COULDN'T EXPLAIN WHY - Citizen Cope
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: fo1k1ore
Email: dangerouscretins@yahoo.com
Tuning: Standard
It's pretty straight forward, listen to the song for timing.
Some playing tips: you can use your ring and middle finger to play the low
notes and hit the B string with your pinky and index like hammer ons in the
strum pattern.
Also, as a general rule, either mute the e strings or don't hit them at all.
Cope generally uses the middle section of the guitar.

* For strumming tips, at the end of the second phrase and 4th phrase, strum
a whole bunch of times.
$ This is a quick transition, but you should hear the open note in between.
The chorus is played with distortion, and it is pretty much just the A and D
strings struck down in about 1/4 notes.
That's about it. You just play this over
