During louder parts tap harmonics on the backbeat - have to play snare on part of soundboard above the frets

[Miscellaneous] Start very quiet - have to play to loudness of harmonics Start playing harmonics of D chord on B and G strings - tap and play snare at same time when playing high D Then play harmonic F# by touching string at 14th fret with 1st finger and plucking with 4th finger then strum &2& bit with right hand and play snare with thumb Chords are xx0232 x02222 x24432 (3x0002 3x0003) Make sure chords played very lightly and completely muted when you go to play the next harmonic Notes - when start, tap harmonics of D chord at 12th fret area And use those taps (some of them) for the backbeat Tap harmonics on louder sections of with or without you and can be backbeat as well Intro riff Fret the high D and articulate high note/s with up pluck with 2nd finger - put in drop D and strum with other fingers and can do snare Also this is constantly played over the chords So chords really are D Asus4 Bm7 Gadd9 (3x0233) In fact with ebow part becomes D F#m7/A (ish), Bm7 , Gadd9 (3x0233) Can use thumb to play hihat figure as well snare by using differnt emphasis little finger strum then th(2) TH(3) th(4) th(1) th(2) TH(3) th(4) In parts of song guitar riff implies A7sus4 Right hand little finger to strum each chord and use right hand thumb to play snare and 8th notes figure on sound board to give momentum Make sure high note is held and vibratoed for as long as possible Ascending figure 13 to 15 happens on transition from G to D 12(G) 13(G) 15(D)
[Verse - Full drums - Guitar staccato and muted] I went [A] searching for the [G] truth But in my [Em] innocence I [A] found All the [A] con men and their [G] acrobats Who [Em] stomped me in the [A] ground If I [A] count up their [G] percentages I [Em] know they're getting [A] rich But t [A] hey haven't taken [G] everything Those [Em] paybacks are a [A] bitch (Asus 2 figure)
