None of them
Ok. I saw Eli Young Band play about a month ago here in Fayetteville AR. I wanted to this song badly, and the only tabs I found on the internet were in standard tuning or used Just by listening to the song on the album I knew this wasnt right. I was standing about feet away from Mike Eli while he played this song, and I promise you this is as close 100% as it gets. If you want to test it out, just tune the low E string down to C# and follow the bass It took me forever to figure this tuning out, but I am sure this is correct. Tuning (low to high): C# - down from low e G# - down from a C# - down from d G# - up from g C# - up from b C# - down from high e Essentially all this tuning is is the "DADADD" that has become so popular in recent but a half step down. Key: s = slide h = hammer p = pull off * = palm mute Intro & Verses: |---0--0-----0--------------0---0---0------| |---0--0-----0--------------0---0---0------| |---0--0-----0--------------0---0---0------| |---0--0-----0--------0-0---0---0---0------| |---9--9--s--5--------------0---0---0------| |---9--9--s--5--4h5-5-------0---0---0------| * * During the verse, repeat that twice then play: |--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------| |--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------| |--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------| |--0--0---0--0---0-----0---0---------------------------| |--2--2---5--5---7-----0---0---------------------------| |--2--2-s-5--5-s-7-s--12--12---------------------------| "Memories sneak up on me, wherever I go" During the above section, use palm muting liberally and listen for the chord changes. timing is not exact.
