**this riff provides the basis for much of the song. The first two bars
before the G chord are not really A chords, but I called it A for the sake
of simplicity. It is really an Esus4 figure with an A running throughout
in the bass. Harmonically, it functions as an A chord. The Asus4 figure
at the end is sometimes voiced as a Dsus4 played at the 9th fret. This
pattern is repeated throughout the verses, so the chords below refer to
this riff.
The original studio recording sounds a semitone (one fret) lower than you
see written here. This is easily achieved by tuning the guitar so that
each string sounds a semitone lower (often called Eb tuning). On the
Half-Alive album, the song is played a full tone (two frets) lower. This
can be done either by tuning the guitar a full tone lower, or by transposing
the key from what you see here.
