Sprout and the Bean

e---C# B---G# G---E D---B A---G# E---C# If your guitar won't do drop tunings like this one very well, you can just stay in and tune up your A string to be a B. A tuning that also works is D standard but the A string stays the same. I'm a classical guitarist that likes to play pop music so...this is a really hard tab. the basics of the verse: -9------9--------10--------9----9------| ---7--7---7--7------10---7----7----7---| ---9--9---9--9---------9------9----9---| ---7--7---7--7-------------7-----------| --------0------0-----------------------| -10----------------------0-------------| A variation on rhythm that's thrown around a lot: ----9---9-----9---9----| ------7---7-----7---7--| ------9---9-----9---9--| ------7---7-----7---7--| ------------0----------| -10--------------------| this next part is a good transition back to the beginning of the verse lick: ie: and I.. raved ---10-10--9-9--7-7--2-2--| --------------------0-0--| ---7--7---6-6--4-4--2-2--| ---7--7---7-7--5-5-------| -0------------------0----| -------------------------| the basics of the pre chorus and chorus: . here's where i get sorta nuts...the interlude into the next chorus indicate left hand harmonics x right hand harmonics x indicate left hand fret, 16 ie: 4 is fretted at the 4th, and plucked at the 16th with the right. open right hand have no beginning number. Basically just play the chord and then the harmonic part. If i were to call these 6 different measures you would play them in this order: measure measure 3, 2, 4, 1, 5, 2, 6 Should we go out side...
