Title: Pinch Me
Album: Maroon

This is BNL`s first single off of Maroon, and it`s a great one
too! It`s sure to be a hit. For the intro, you don`t need to play
the muted notes, but it sure does help. Also, on the C note of the F
chord in the intro, that can also be played as:
---------
---------
---x-----
-x-------
------3--
1--------
It switches off randomly during the song, so it`d be hell to tab all of
it out. As for the solo at the end, I couldn`t really figure that out
cause he uses some weird effect which I don`t have, so if you can tab
it, please send it to me so I can add it.

Lead-up to the Chorus: I just basically made some stuff up here, like
the picking pattern, its not correct, but the chords are and just listen
to the CD or MP3 to get the gist of it.

Pinch me, Pinch Me, `cause I`m still asleep: A C chord may be inbetween
the A5 and G, but it depends if you want to play it or not.

Trying to see the world...: Play the C G F progression, then end on the A5
and let it ring out.

sorry, I might do it soon.

In this tab, the rhythm is not shown, and when it shows like you play a C
chord 4 times, you don`t actually play 4 times, just around that number cause
Ed and Steve are good with little licks and stuff to fill around the chords,
ok, I`ll shutup, I don`t know what the hell I`m talking about. But just play
along with the CD or MP3 and you`ll have it.
