Re: The Opened Way
Wow this really is a beautiful arrangement. I'm still not nearly skilled enough to play it at actual tempo, but even slowly it sounds amazing!
F YEAH
WOOOO Listening to this got my fist pumping in the air.
aah
This is now the most epic song i know on guitar. tyvm.
Holy crap, how do you do
Holy crap, how do you do these chords O.o Perhaps this isn't a beginner tab, lol.

Well, I was a beginner when I tabbed this. Does that make it a beginner tab? :)
Seriously though, I'm not proud of this arrangement. Don't spend too much time trying to play this. It might not be worth it.

I haven't really worked on chords yet, this'll be something I'll have to work up to.

unfortunately the majority of tabs here are either singular melodies or fingerstyle and it's a bit hard to find something in between.

Put emphasis on fretting the chord of each measure before picking it.
Hrm, the only difficulty I
Hrm, the only difficulty I would really have with that is that I don't know how to finger pick, I've been using a plastic one. I find that when I finger pick, the tone isn't as sharp. Thankyou, however.
Ah, I inferred you were
Ah, I inferred you were fingerpicking since this discussion is in a fingerstyle tab.
I tone tends to be duller since it's fingertips versus a plastic pick. Most fingerstyle players either use plastic fingerpicks for each finger, grow their nails, or wait for their fingertips to callous over.
If you intend to focus on standard picking then it'd be best to look to look elsewhere for some basic chord practice. Songs that are chord based are few and far between here, and those that are tend to use uncommon advanced chords.
Lol, I didn't even notice the
Lol, I didn't even notice the style. I'm sorry if I'm being difficult XD Thankyou so much for being helpful, I really do appreciate it. I'll dig around the interwebs to see what I can find.
