Collective Soul - Understanding (solo)

This tab is in standard tuning, but the song is dropped 1/2 step. If you're playing
with your guitar dropped 1/2 step, just move every note up one fret.

B|-0-x-3-x-0-0-3-3-0--|
G|-0-x-0-x-0-0-0-0-0--|
D|-2-x-2-x-2-2-2-2-2--| x2 Then do the same thing but with a G chord x2
A|-2-x-2-x-2-2-2-2-2--|
E|-0-x-0-x-0-0-0-0-0--|
