This is a cameo with Carlos Santana. This song is hard to depict where the chorus and bridge are. Dave layers the guitar vet well. I have the basic parts and patterns for the song. I hope you like it. This is also played on a classical guitar (nylon strings). It sounds very nice.



Intro – let the strummed chords ring 

--------------------------------------------------7--7--5----------------------|

-8---7--8--10---8--7h8p7-------7--8--7---5-----------------8--9----------------|

-9-------------------------7------------------5-----------------9h11p9--4---4--|

-7-------------------------5------------------3-------------------------2---2--|

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

                                                                              



Verse – This is the basic pattern. I think Dave has some strange strumming pattern in the mix too. It would sound better with a band backing you up too.

This is played pretty fast too.

Chorus – This is just the verse picking patter with the below chords and muting being played in rapid flamenco strum style.

“Mother Father please explain to me . . . “

Bridge – “What’s all this talk about?” 

This is played pretty darn fast too. You can use the chords below 

instead of the picking. It sounds better when playing solo.

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

-8-------7-------8-------7-------8-------7-------8-------7--------|

----9-------9-------9-------9-------9-------9-------9-------9-----|

Alternate Strumming pattern for the bridge – (best played at the end)                                                                              

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

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

-12---11---9------12---11---9--|--12---10---9-------12---11---9--|

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

-10----9---7------10----9---7--|--10----9---7-------10----9---7--|

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



Then goes back to the verse



Then play the chorus



Then the bridge (“coming at you . . . we’re taking the water”)
