awesome....
Lightning Crashes
---------------
Live from Throwing Copper
***NOTE**** the bass and drums do not enter until the end of the 2nd
verse.....when the vocals go "her intentions fall to the floor"
slide in from the 12th to 2 on the E string...Remember the ONLY way
to make this song work when you play it out is to make it build in
intensity so start out SOFT!!! and play wide open at the end.....I
start out clean with the tone low and end up with deep chorus and
wide open vol & tone also sounds rather bad ass with some flange.
Verse:
G-----|-----|----- ||
D---- |-----|----- || follow the guitar changes here & repeat
A---- |-2-2-|----- || ad nauseum....stay on the f# when the guitar
E -0-0|-----|-2-2-2-2|| does....
Chorus:
oh now feel it coming ...blah blah
G-----|---- |----||
D-----|---- |----|| These changes are right on the vocals
A-----|--22 |----|| and are the same notes as the verse but
E-00- |---- |-2-2|| different rhythm
Solo:
G-------|------|------|------|--------------|I play this in time
D-------|------|------|------|--------------|with the kick. just
A-------|------|------|------|-----2-2------|listen to your drummer.
E-4--2--|-4--2-|-4--2-|-4--2-|0-0-------2--4|
Kick in the volume on the last 3 choruses and try to look like you're
groovin on a song that is REALLY hard to play :)
