at the end of the video, a standard tuning version is shown how to play. it's not possible to play the same notes, and the lower pitched notes of this song without tuning it to the way the lesson shows. thanks for watching!.
thank you for the wonderful tutorial... i visited ur website and i learnt more. thanks once again man. :) i am just started playing guitar though i am already 24.. kinda old for that huh? such a newbie~ :) anyway, thanks once again
@ddrummond87 did you know that Goo Goo Dolls tune their guitars different for just about every song? Andy Mckee, Justin King, Jars of Clay, Skillet, Red, all tune their guitars differently for songs. This is exactly the way you play this song. Changing tunings does not make anything easier or weak, it simply changes the way the instrument sounds. this song is in the tuning of an open C chord which makes the guitar much lower, this is the only way to play the song correctly. thanks.

I Am not an instrumental player but i thought i would watch a video of just instrumental with this song and you gave me an interesting idea. I like to write poems and songs but i only created one actual song because i was lucky to have a best friend that new how to play piano(sadly video not on youtube it on her facebook) and so i wrote a song recently and i thought the music in this song mixed with music of what about now by daughtry could make a song i wrote more interesting.
@lhizziey tuners work well, i guess you could find one online, but they usually suck, so if your not sure how to tune back to standard properly, investing in a tuner is a good idea, theyre old like 10-20$ for a good one
lol im scared to tune it to open c, people say their strings broke and i have no money to replace them if they dooo. . . but i REALLY wanna learn this song. haha ohhh well F*CK IT! ;)

hey. i'm a newbie at this soo is thr a way to tune the guitar w/o using the tuner or other instruments? : )

If you tune your guitar up it will break the string. Plus, strings usually can be tuned up about a few steps higher before breaking, which is a lot.
@Rush4Life70494 Yeah you can play it in standard tuning with a capo on the 4th fret
you are welcome!!! if you'd like to learn more, check out my site AaronsGuitarLessons com and my Lesson Services... Ask Aaron and Live Webcam Lessons.

@calvinthao Use an electric tuner or type in "tune your guitar" on youtube and just match it up with the video to your guitar, that easy.

Where do i get the tabs from?
4:48 for those who broke their strings and wanna play it standard :D
@ddrummond87 dude, people tune down for a reason. Barring and power chords are for different purposes.
@jojotakacs1023 i got the tab, is it right?
when you tune DOWN, you are taking tension off the string, so when you tune UP to standard tuning, you could stretch it out too far and break a string
whats the plucking pattern.
what is the strumming pattern of this song???
every chord for this song is shown and tabbed out on screen. watch the entire video. all the info is there.
was there a capo?
can't you play picking in standard tuning another way?
