All Time Low - Runaways Standard Tuning Tabbed by HalfmanHalfduck (www.youtube.com/user/halfmanhalfduck) 4/4 This is the riff from the intro that also plays during the verses. The way I play it is fingerpicking with my thumb, index and middle finger. It's probably the hardest thing in this song, so if you want to make it easier, you can miss out the E string, or even just play the G string. OR you could just play each chord once and use a tremolo effect to do the rest. e|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--| B|--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--| G|--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6--| D|-------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| Here's the rhythm guitar part that goes underneath it.
