crash into me

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

Hey adamondo , like FJ said , you gotta use your ears a little bit , JKanter doesn't tab how many times you strum each chord , or whether or not its up and down strokes , you just gotta sit down and listen to it to feel the rhythm , besides that leaves some space for a little creativity to improvise :)

I'll do a video for you of the verse thing.

I'll add it to the list in the root post of the **POST YOUR REQUEST HERE**-thread

you wanna have it done extra slow? with vocals?

If youcan, download an acoustic version of the song, either from Luther College or Storytellers, because the strumming is always easier to hear on those versions.

Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
