Somebody by Blue October
Great song and a great band. I'm really only posting this so I can get some
feedback on the accurate way to play it. I've figured out the verses and
bridge but the chorus is a little off.
Hopefully this song (or Blue October for that matter) can get some good
airplay and people will listen to this song.
So if you have any corrrections or what not,
please let me know or post the right way to play it. Thanks. Adam
Tuning: Drop D
Intro: Listen to the song to get the right rhythm and

Here comes the part I'm unsure about...the chorus. Seems like C.B.
(BO's guitarist) does some pull offs and hammer ons throughout the
chorus but it's really choppy and hard to tell how or when.
I'm pretty sure the chords are D, F, and G so you're gonna have to
play around with that. If you do find an accurate way to play it
however, please let me know. :)
Bridge: Just strum 4 counts each: D A G
and then chop up the F chord...you'll know how
By the way, anyone else wanna share any Blue October tabs,
