When I Fall by After School
Played by ears once again and it needed capo at the second fret to make sound the
same like the song. For the chords I'm not exactly sure about those other names of
the chords xD. Well I apologize for that. For the intro Pluck it don't strum the
first part! It would be awesome if someone is playing this song with you. He could
do the strumming at the intro though. Well it's up to you anyways. I'm using two
different Em's(E minor) here. The other with lower tone and the other is the
higher one. You will see it when you get to the Bridge part of the song. Don't
worry I'll put the numbering for that part. I hope you'll enjoy this. I did try to
make it sound the same as the song. Not 100% accurate, but I did try my best.
Legend: ~ let it ring/vibrato| 0-open string means pluck or strum it.| x-dead
string means don't play it don't hit it when u strum it. That's impossible sometimes lol.
The plucking part is only at the Intro the rest you strum it.
