Intro
Ok, so the pattern alternates between what we’ll call Rhythm Fig #1 and #2. You’ll have
to listen for the pattern in the song cause I’m not sure how to tab it, but this is the
basic gist.
Rhythm Fig #1

Chorus
Then the chorus is pretty simple. Progression from Cadd9 to D, over to Emin7 and then a
G. To the words it looks something like this:
Cadd9 D
So was it hard for you to go?
D Emin7
Did I fail to let you know
Emin7 G Cadd9
That you are the one I needed most?
Cadd9 D
Was is it hard for you to leave
D Emin7
Without a care for me?
Emin7 G Cadd9
It takes some time to embrace the cold
Cadd9 Rhythm Fig #3
Until then I'm just a Hollow Man

Verse 2
Then right back into Rhythm Fig #2 and alternating between #1 and #2 in the verse
Rhythm Fig #2
e|-----------------------------------------------------3---3-3---2-2-2-2-2-|
B|-----------------------------------------------------3---3-3---3-3-3-3-3-|
G|------------0-----------0----------------------------0---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-|

A|----3-----------2---------------0---------0----------2---2-2---2-2-2-2-2-|
E|-----------------------------3---------2---------0---0---0-0---0-0-0-0-0-|
You complete verse 2 then into the Second chorus. After the Second Chorus, you play a
little bridge. AS he's holding the words "Hollow Man" you just alternate between the Cadd9
and the Emin7 chords then end on a D chord. After the D, you go back in to Rhythm Fig #1.
On the Line "A Shadow of the Sun?" you only play the picked portion of Rhythm Fig #1 or

(Let this Ring)
Then you play the chorus for one final time, followed with another section like the
bridge. Play it the same way but the outro is a slowed down Rhythm Fig 1 with a picked
Emin7. It looks kinda like this:
