Our Father by Extreme
Our Father
no capo
Solo not included.
The opening section is played with clean guitar and delay set at around
340 milliseconds. (half of what you hear on the record is just slapback
echoes).
There's a lot of slide guitar during the chorus which I've haven't bothered
with.
I've tried to keep the lyrics in time with the music. To keep from wasting
space where there's a lot of words but not much music happening, I put
the words in brackets. When the brackets end, the next word is in time
with the tablature above it.
Key:
---
M above note = palm-mute
a.h = artificial harmonic
^ = hammer/pull
3(b)5 = bend 3rd fret to 5th

(this part is more complicated when then singing starts. It sounds
as though Nuno is playing the delayed part, so when it really gets
delayed, it sounds twice as complicated. What's below is close
enough
