As Things Collide

Here you go... Enjoy... And please, leave comments if you have any questions or concerns...

UPDATE: 1/29/13 - Looking through my old tabs and noticed a few issues that needed 
correcting. Piano breakdown was the worst mistake, but there were a few very minor 
discrepancies in the solo as well. However, all has been corrected! Hopefully 
these couple mistakes haven't steered anyone too terribly wrong... O_o

As Things Collide
Maroon 5

Intro Riff and Verse Riff:

  D  A   G   A      G  A  D
E|--------------------3--5----------|
B|7--5---3-----------3--5-7~--------|
G|77-6-6-4--466h76--4--6--7~--------|
D|7-77--75-5------7-------7~--------|
A|-----------------7----------------|
E|----------------------------------|

The guitarist does a lot of variations on this riff throughout this song,
but this is the basic riff. If you play this the whole way through, no one
will know the difference, but if you really feel the urge you can fill in a
bunch of extras in between and change it up a bit.

If you want, you can switch to this strumming pattern as the song picks up.

  D  A   G   A    G  A  D
E|22~0~0~3~3~0000~33~00~2~--------|
B|33~2~2~3~3~2322~33~22~3~--------|
G|22~2~2~0~0~2222~00~22~2~--------|
D|00~2~2~0~0~2222~00~22~0~--------|
A|00~0~0~2~2~0000~22~00~0~--------|
E|-------3~3~-----33~-------------|

Bridge:

This is the bridge as played when picking. This can be done through the
whole song, but if you want to use the strumming pattern, as shown below,
then just use the picking for the first part of the song then switch to
strumming. If you listen to the song, you’ll know where to make the switch.
