Song: The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret 
Artist: Queens of the Stone Age 
Album: Rated R 


Ok this is the second single off of Rated R and its class. 
This is pretty simple as well although there are two 
guitars playing, one an octave higher on certain bits to give 
it a layered effect but its not that important. 

All guitars tuned down two whole steps to C 
Low to High=C,F,Bb,Eb,G,C 

Im not gonna put how many times you hit each chord unless 
its a little tricky to hear. 

Intro and Verse 
E5   B5   Bb5  A5

-9----9----8----7------7b--7-5----------------- 
-7----9----8----7---0-----------7--------------

Play each chord for a bar each. End with that little fiddle.

These are both played at exactly the same time btw

-15---17---16----17----------------------------- 
-15---17----X----17----------------------------- 
-13---15---14----15-----------------------------

Hit that ? Octave for about 2 bars or something 

Solo 
Other guitar plays intro/verse chords throughout 
-12b------15b---13b----------------------------- 
-15b--15--18b---16b----------------------------- 
---------------------11b--12b------------------- 
---------------------14b--15b------------------- 
------------------------------------------------ 
------------------------------------------------ 
Do that twice, except dragging out the bends a little 
more. They're all full bends btw 
Then 
-12b--------15b--------18b---18b---17b---------- 
-15b--------18b--------21b---21b---20b---------- 
------------------------------------------------ 
------------------------------------------------ 
------------------------------------------------ 
------------------------------------------------ 
Really drag out those first 2 bends 

Outro 
I think both guitars play this, probably with a little 
variation in there somewhere.
