Hey guys! I know I'm a bit of a lurker newb and stuff, but this is the song that really pulled me into the new G'n'R, so for months I've been trying to learn how play it on real guitar, and you know what? xD I just recently (five minutes ago) able to find out the tuning used for the song, and how to play bits and pieces of it! I'm tabbing it out as I type this.

However, the song is played in Drop A#/Bb (flat) tuning. Lower than Drop C. I'll post a bit of my uh, progress.


-----------------------------------------


Tuning (from Lowest string to highest: )
Bb - F - Bb - Eb - G - C

Chorus:

--------------------------------
--------------------------------
-----10----.6-------------------
-----10----.6----6----1-(1/)6-5-
-----.8-----4----6----1---------
-----------------6----1---------


Yeah, not really a lot, but... I'm working on it! Expect progress reports.


EDIT: [Here, judge the quality of what I have so far XD]

EDIT 2: Oh hey, it sounds better if I don't use the whammy pedal for the intro uh....elephant noises.

EDIT 3: [Hurr, this one's way better!]

Dude, that's so low I'm surprised the strings don't just pull loose.  LOL.

Has Axl or anyone talked about this song's composition? Since Buckethead was gone when the lyrics were written, was this just sitting around as an instrumental or were there other lyrics originally? Or did Axl and the producers/engineers piece it all together digitally? Whatever. I love the hell out of it.  Very, very different but very cool.

I hit repeat on this on my daily commute most frequently.  Hope it isn't foretelling of outcomes at workplace.... j/k

I Like the A Capella version where only Axl vocal is on the track!  :rockon:
