"You Are Mine" words by Mac Powell / music by Third Day Note: Capo on the second fret for strings one through five; leave sixth string "open." This I credit to paraloxy...thanks! I couldn't have done it without you! :P All notes (even on sixth) are played relative capo except open sixth string...*duh* :P It looks nasty, and tryin' to sing along really is annoying for a while. Listen to the song to get a feel for what the melody part for the guitar is; then just practice 'til your fingers fall off! Once it's in your head, it comes pretty naturally when you try to sing along with it. Also, the bass notes in all of this song are even, although I didn't tab it quite that way...don't let it phase you! Keep 'em even. You'll play this riff a total of four times: once for the intro, twice for the first verse, and once for the last verse (which is really the first half of the first verse). At the end of the intro, strike that E chord with the back of your nails. <--==Intro/Verse 1 and 3==--> |-------------0-------2-------2r0------------------------------| |--3------------------------------------0----------2-------3---| |-------2--------2---------2-------2r0-------0--------0--------| |-----0------------0-----0-----------------2------------2------| |---------------------------------------0-------0----------0---| |--0-------0----------0----------------------------------------| _____________ |--------------------------------------------------------------| |-------2-------1----------3-------0---------------------------| |----0-----0---------0--------0---------0--4r2r0----2----2-----| |--2---------2-----0------------0-----0----------0-----0-------| |-------0-------3-------3----------3---------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------0-------0--| ______________________ _____________________________________ 1 | 2, 3, 4 | |--3r2-------3--------|-------------------------------------| |------3-----2--------|-------------3-------3-------3-------| |------------3--------|--2----2--------2---------2-----2----| |---------0-----------|-----0------------0-----0---------0--| |---------------------|-------------------------------------| |---------0-----------|--0-------0----------0-------0-------| <--==First Chorus==--> (repeat once) |------------------------------------------------------| |--3----------3-------3----------3-------3----------3--| |-------2--------2---------2--------2---------0--------| |-----2------------2-----2------------2-----0----------| |--0-------0----------0-------0------------------------| |----------------------------------------3-------3-----| |--------------------------| |-------3----------3-------| |--0---------2--------2----| |----0-----0------------0--| |--------------------------| |-------0-------0----------| //end repeat |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--3----------3-------3----------3-------3----------3-------3--| |-------2--------2---------2--------2---------2--------2-------| |-----0------------0-----0------------0-----2------------2-----| |----------------------------------------0-------0----------0--| |--0-------0----------0-------0--------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------| |----------3-------3----------3-------3----------3-------3---| |----2--------2---------0--------0---------0--------0--------| |--2------------2-----2------------2-----2------------2------| |-------0----------3-------3----------2-------2--------------| |--------------------------------------------------------0---| |---------------------| |----------3-------3--| |----2--------2-------| |--0------------0-----| |---------------------| |-------0----------0--| <--==Outro Riff==--> (I snatch my pick up real quick here...) |----------------------------5---------------5--| |------------------------------3-------------3--| |------------------------------------2-----2-2--| |------0-----0-----0---0-----------0-----0---0--| |----0-----0-----0---------------3-----2-----2--| |--2-----3-----2-----0----0------------------3--| The rest, besides the last "verse" is strumming or the outro; listen to the cd for syntax. The chords and progressions are as follows (I hope these are right...I know a little about chords, but it's not been my focus in my studies of theory): E12 C2add15 (C2) A9 -5- -5- -5- -3- -3- -3- -2- -0- -0- -0- -2- -0- -0- -3- -2- -0- -x- -3- B15 C2add15/b (C2/b) -5- -5- -3- -3- -2- -0- -2- -2- -0- -2- -x- -x- Verse: E12 B15 C2 C2/b E12 (repeat) Chorus: B15 A9 E12 B15 A9 E12 E12 B15 C2 C2/b E12 For the rockin' little bridge they do after the second chorus, I just play the Outro twice, then I just keep repeating it with power chords: G# A G# E12 D C# A9 After this it goes back to the first half of the first verse; I am only one man, so I don't go back to picking like Third Day does. I just strum the chords quietly, and I change the last E12 before the chorus to an A9 and strum it down 8 times down-up 8 times quickly with a nice crescendo as a lead in to the final chorus. When they play the ending, they play the outro twice and end on A9 (not the original key for the song). I'm all for that style; it's one of Jars of Clay's (one of my favorite bands) frequently used "techniques" if you will; in this song, however, I prefer to play the outro just once at the end and finish on the E12 instead of the A. ©.2004 Consuming Fire Music / ASCAP.
