Maps (acoustic) – Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Hi again!  Here’s a pretty acoustic number for the ladies out there (and my lady ;) )  I’ve gone into much depth this time (perhaps too much??) and done all the sections of the song separately, as well as fully tabbed it for everyone.  I rock!  HA!  But seriously, it’s kinda long so grab that axe and follow me into the land of acoustic indie-rock…

a note on the picking

When dealing with the picking parts you should always be picking your string in the direction of the next string you need (to keep the wrist cyclical and moving smoothly.)  I go into detail about this on-video, but I wanted to stress the importance of getting the wrist comfortable by playing on the outside of the string pairs.  Make sense?  It will, just watch.  :)

listen and learn

Here’s the original performance.  Get familiar with it and you will know what sections go where.
