Thats the lot really. Just go slightly more nuts later on, listen
to the song and you should get it no worries.
Any corrections or suggestions would be appreciated.
Song: The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret
Artist: Queens of the Stone Age
Album: Rated R
Ok this is the second single off of Rated R and its class.
This is pretty simple as well although there are two
guitars playing, one an octave higher on certain bits to give
it a layered effect but its not that important.
All guitars tuned down two whole steps to C
Low to High=C,F,Bb,Eb,G,C
Im not gonna put how many times you hit each chord unless
its a little tricky to hear.
Intro and Verse

Play each chord for a bar each. End with that little fiddle.

Solo
Other guitar plays intro/verse chords throughout
12b15b13b
15b1518b16b
11b12b
14b15b
Do that twice, except dragging out the bends a little
more. They re all full bends btw
Then
12b15b18b18b17b
15b18b21b21b20b
Really drag out those first 2 bends
Outro
I think both guitars play this, probably with a little
variation in there somewhere.
