Everyday By Bon Jovi
Tabbed by: stringping

Standard Tuning: E A D G B e (Low to High)

Alright this is Bon Jovi's first single from their new album Bounce.
The talk box is needed to play this song but if u dont have it just use a Wah Wah
that has alot of bass. Pretty easy song to play, a tip is to use alternate picking
on the Intro and Verses. The verses have overdubbed guitar parts that are great if
you have 2 guitarists. The chorus is straight up power chords although there is a
guitar or keyboard part which I tabbed out too. Solo is real easy just some *** load
of bends, becareful not to bend over the pitch! One last tip, listen to the song so
that you know whats goin on.
