Hives - Hate To Say I Told You So

Tabbed By - C (schecterguitarguy)

This is a tight song off of the Spiderman Soundtrack and i havent found many tabs
for it, so i thought i would contribute what i can...this sounds exactly like the song
and it is not too hard to play...

if you can only play with yourself...i would recommend playing the first guitar 
in the intro and forgetting the part that plays over the
intro and then switching to the second guitar for the rest of the song which will
give what you are playing a harder feel (+ it is a little easier to play). 

For the first guitar i would play the chord with my first finger on the second lowest
string and then barring the next three strings two frets up without pressing down on
high e. Just a lil tip, but u can play it however you would like.

Also, as for the amount of distortion, the way my amp works is that i have 2 gains,
the second giving more distortion than the highest setting on the first. So for the
first guitar, i set the first gain about 1/3 of the way and leave it there for the
whole song. For the second, i set gain 1 like 3/4 of the way. When the distortion is 
kciked up on the second guitar, i kickt up to the second gain with my 
footpedal and set that abpout 3/4 of the way.You can play around with what sounds right

Good Luck!

Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
