some people have told me that A sounds better than Asus4, so i wanted to clarify something: make sure to use UltimateGuitar's second variation of Asus4, i promise its right. the one that looks like this: 3rd finger on 3rd fret of B string 2nd finger on 2nd fret of G string 1st finger on 2nd fret of D string i promise this is the best possible sound. its exactly accurate to the album track. just use the correct variation and Asus4 sounds way better than A. try it! :) good luck, and have fun!
