Tuning: Drop C (CGCFAD) 

If you don't know how to tune your guitar to drop C, here's how. 
Make sure your guitar is in STANDARD tuning before you begin. 
I could've just posted the link, but I thought this would be better than having to open  
window. 

1) Play the 3rd fret Low E string and the A string open. Retune the A string to match 
3rd fret Low E string. 
2) Play the 5th fret A string and the D string open. Retune the D string to match the  
fret A string. 
3) Play the 5th fret D string and the G string open. Retune the G string to match the  
fret D string. 
4) Play the 4th fret G string and the B string open. Retune the B string to match the  
fret G string. 
5) Play the 5th fret B string and the High E string open. Retune the High E string to 
the 5th fret B string. 
6) Play the 12th fret Low E string and the D string open. Retune the 12th fret Low E to 
the D string open. 


This is a really, really sloppy tab..I know. I don't know how to tab things out. I'm 
sure this song is not in drop d..I tried playing it in that tuning, but it just didn't 
right. And of course, this is not 100% correct, but I tried. Hope you understand what  
trying to say in this tab. The excalmation marks mean the notes are staccatoed. 
First tab? Yes, obviously.

                  ^^^^^^On The 4th time, hit 8 (2nd string) then 5 (3rd string) instead 
8 (2nd) then 7 (4th) and move into next section. Hope that makes a little sense. But if 
doesn't just play what I put there 4 times..it's doesn't really matter.
