I had the same discussion with a fellow local guitarist 2 months ago... How do you voice it? I do it like this (A-string to e-string): A,e,a,e,a A,e,a,e,a A,f#,a,d,f# A,e,a,e,a A,e,a,c# A,f#_g,a,d,f# A,f#,a,d,f# A,f#,a,d,f# A,f#,a,d,f# A,e,a,e,a Another riff that\ufffds most often voiced wrong is Owner of a lonely heart...
