The Freshmen

The Freshmen - Jay Brannan (Cover of The Verve Pipe Tabbed by: Tim Hoekstra Tuning: Standard This tab is pretty close to the piano part. CAPO: put it on 2, but don't cover the bottom E string. It seems weird, but work with it until you can play the string un-capo-ed and the top 5 strings (ADGBe) with at the same time. *note: if you can't get the 5 string capo thing to work for you, just play the "OPEN" in the Chorus as a 0 on the third () string. I suppose you could use a DADGBe tuning, but I don't like retuning my guitar all the time if I don't have to. All fretting is numbered from the capo. Have Fun!

In this tab, it's written as "OPEN", just don't fret anything when you play it.
