| (): Ghost note
|8/8v: Harmonic doubling with lower octave (Whammy pedal)
| 8~: Unspecific octave shifting (Whammy pedal)
Two guitars play in semi-unison, both of them digitally combined with their low
er octave.
I have simplified them into one guitar part.
Without a digital octave manipulator like the Whammy pedal, it is your best bet
to play full 5th chords.

You were given a flower

Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
Get behind me

Note: Although Jack White plays the second chorus the following way live, one c
ould also push the
Whammy pedal forward to the high octave doubling setting, and play the riff fro
m the first chorus.
