Ok… this song uses an alternate tuning where you drop the two middle
strings to a “B” and an “E”, instead of “D” and “G”, making it EABEBe.
In addition to that, it also has a capo on the third fret. Sorry I
couldn't put in the lyrics. :/

this is an incredibly accurate tab. the only mistake i can hear in it is the intro which should be:

c5 Abmaj7 Bb G5

this is only switching the A and B order on itnro. im guessing this was probably a typo but either way this is a great song! ><>

jstush04@aol - 2004-04-07

this is a really good tab. i had always just played power chords with a capo. the only thing is, you need to make sure that you really palm mute the verses, to get that really bassy sound on the cd

I just finished playing this version and i have to say you hit the nail right on the head with this one. This is by far the best.

Broadcaster - 2004-11-07

jimbojones - 2004-11-09

Nice

This is the best tab for flood i've seen on this site

~FreT~ - 2005-10-18

i think there is a typo.
on the G* chord for the verse, it is palm muted on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd string, like C* and Bb*
gd job!

i love the nashville tuning...

~FreT~ - 2005-10-18

it would be cool if the fretting hand could mute all the strings right after the last chord of the outtro...i think Jars does that anyway. and it's cooler than just letting that C5 ring.

MassageMan - 2005-12-12

correct this is a great version, he plays Flood in this tuneing "EABEBe" live in concert, however if you try playing along with the studio recording you will hear some major tone differences where standard tuening will work best. Over all good work peacing it together besides the chord flip.

thank you thank you. Playing this thing on Sunday and I was killing myself with std tuning. this did the trick...God Bless

graysondh - 2006-04-01

I noticed:

020000

This chord is E5. Not G.

But the tab sounds right.

Truth? - 2006-04-17

That is E but with the capo on 3 it becomes a G.

Excellent. I picked this up a couple of years ago from this posting. Along with watching the live video and this posting I was able to nail it. Thanks.

jeffhef - 2007-03-09

Excellent. I picked this up a couple of years ago from this posting. Along with watching the live video and this posting I was able to nail it. Only thing I'd add is it sounds great if you have 2 acoustics locked in timing together. Thanks.

Sweet.
