Hey guys, this is my cover of Always In My Head, if anyone wants the chords or the tabs let me know! Have a nice day :) [video=youtube;UeSNzpB_dq4]

This is brilliant! Would you mind sharing the chords and tabs for the little lead guitar riff? :)

Chords oh yes please! I havent played guitar for a while now but this is probably the song I should learn too :D

 

By the way, brilliant rendition! I love it! Thanks for sharing!

I will share them! Sure! Well, in the standard version, the little lead guitar riff is:

----------------------------|

-------13-------13----13----|

----10----------------------|

----------12/15----12-------|

----------------------------|

----------------------------|

 

----------------------------|

-------13-------15----13----|

----10----------------------|

----------12/15----15-------|

----------------------------|

----------------------------|

 

The chords in the standard version go:

(capo 3rd fret) (All chords relative to the capo)

D--0--0--0--0

A--0--0--0--0

G--0--4--7--6

D--2--5--9--7

A--2--5--9--7

E--0--3--7--5

 

In my version the lead goes:

----7----------------------| x 4

----------9/12----9-------|

----------------------------|

----------------------------|

 

----------------------------|

-------10-------12----10----|

In my version the chords go:

D--0--0--0--0

A--0--0--0--0

G--0--4--7--6

D--2--5--9--7

A--2--5--9--7

E--0--3--7--5 and you can add this 3rd one:

G--0--4--11--7--6

D--2--5--12--9--7

A--2--5--12--9--7

E--0--3--10--7--5

 

For the lead, use some reverb and a delay at 463ms. Hope it helped! Cheers! :)

And thank you for your kind comments guys! :)

Thank you so much! I really enjoy your cover :)

No need to thank me, my pleasure! Glad you do :)

So the tuning is DAGDAE?

No, the tuning is EADGDA :)

So you changed the tuning while on the chorus?

No, I recorded the guitars separately. Standard tuning for the lead (EADGBE) and my special tuning for the acoustic guitar chords (EADGDA)

Okay, it's just for the tunings you put:

D

A

G

D

A

E

Yes :)

So for the melody, which tuning do you think is the best for playing then? :D I only have one guitar I dont think I'll record both at the same time when I'm practicing :P

Hum, depends, you can do an arrangement for the chords in the standard tuning, but I would better go with that tuning: EADGDA and make an arrangement for the lead :)

Also, how did you make the kind of ambient sound in the intro of the song?

That's a really simple one, I was just playing this:

E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

G|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6-6

D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(I didn't play it exactly the same amount of times written here, but you will easily figure it out)

With a lot of reverb and some delay :)

That's a really cool/brilliant cover. Love it man. I bet your chords would sound cool mixed with the ones I settled on for the acoustic guitar in this cover I did. I think I have them written down or in my iPad. This is in a different key but the acoustic guitar chords are voiced much higher which would probably be pretty cool combined with yours. Cheers man, I love it.
