Tuning:
- BEADF#B -Standard Baritone Guitar Tuning (Also works in EADGBE for standard guitar)Mckee plays this song on a baritone guitar, its longer scale allows it to be
tuned much lower than a standard acoustic.
Baritones are expensive and rare. This song can be played on a normal acoustic.
You can tune down to BEADF#B (3+1/2 steps down i think) but this low tension on
the strings of a standard acoustic may cause some buzzing.
The song can be played just the same in standard tuning EADGBE on a standard
acoustic guitar but obviously will be in a much higher pitch.
I have tabbed out everything up until the bridge of the song (coming soon)
I realize some of the beat notes (x's and 0's on mainly 6th string) might be
a little off. Just get the basic melody down and once you can play that then
try to add in the beat.
This song takes a lot of time to learn, i would suggest using this tab in
conjuction with the Ebon Coast Tutorial Video that can be found using google
video.
I also tryed to mark then end of certain sections in the song that are repeated
by putting corresponding letters in parenthesis at the end of the section.
Hell of a fun song to learn and play (good one to impress your girl)
Good luck
