Hey guys... does any one have an alternate tab for YNK. The one Kanter has is good, but in some areas it sounds way off (chorus - capo version). Just wondering.

we4ll the one he has with a capo isnt in raised b. Its a alternate tunning.

There's a capo 7 (rasied B) and capo 2 version.

the capo at 7 would be the same as the Raised B tab. However, its all relative to the Capo so its not worth unless you have a cutaway. The Capo at 2 is alternate tunning.

I know it's the same, which is why it's in parentheses...

yup, yup. I think YNK is a tough song, mianly because it's so awkward without a rasied B guitar.

There is something I have been wanting to ask about this song for awhile. Has anyone seen the tab in the cherry lane book? It says he tunes the bottom five strings up a fifth and tunes the top string down a fourth. It says he puts a heavier gauge string on the 1st to do this. Does anyone know if he really does this? When it comes to the Luther College books, cherry lane did a great job I felt. But on this song, I think they are probably wrong and is just a raised B tuning.

Isn't that how you do raised B? I am probably wrong though...

Actually I am not sure. I thought raised B meant you raise all the strings up a fifth, not just 2 though 6. If that is the real way to do a raised b, then I have just been mistaken all this time.

Low E up to B
A up to E
D up to A
G up to D
B up to F#
High E DOWN to B

The 1st string actually winds up being lower than the 2nd. That's how Dave does it. You should use a slightly heavier gauge, such as a .016 for the 1st string in raised B.

It should be noted too that if you're doing raised B you should by a set of extra light gauge strings, don't use the low E, string the guitar starting with the A string in the Low E position, D string in the A position and go from there. You'll need to buy an additional .016 string, to go on the empty 1st string position.

So that is how to do it. Way to go Cherry Lane!

Also, if we're talking about your main guitar. You'll want to not leave it in that tuning long unless you get it professionally set up to do so, or you could warp the neck or damage the guitar otherwise.

lol going back to the original question. I should have mentioned that i know its an alternate tuning, but the chorus still sounds way off. Some of the chords in it just dont work even by themselves in my opinion. Any insight or am i just overly paranoid?
