Sin For A Sin
Written by Miranda Lambert & Blake Shelton
Recorded by Miranda Lambert

You can play this with two guitars, one without a capo, the other with a capo on 2.

Guitar 1
Regular Tuning
[No Capo]

[Intro]
E --------------------------------------------------------------|
B --------------------------------------------------------------|
G --------------------------------------------------------------|
D -----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2-|
A --------------------------------------------------------------|
E ---0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0---|

Go thru that once, then repeat, once you start over, the 2nd guitar should join in.
When the chord switches to (A) (or G for Guitar 2), then pick this:
E --------------------------------------------------------------|
B --------------------------------------------------------------|
G --------------------------------------------------------------|
D -----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2----2-|
A ---0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0----0---|
E --------------------------------------------------------------|

Its very simple, just pick the base notes of the E and A chords. Once you're thru the
verse,
you can pick the base note, then the top four strings of the chords. Just a quick
on rhythm
guitar! If you have been playing for a little bit, you probably knew that, but just
the
beginners out!

Guitar 2
Regular Tuning
(Capo on 2)

Wait for Guitar 1 to go thru the 1st bar, join in:
[Intro]
Repeat (D) till you get into the verse (G)
-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3--------|
-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3--------|
-----0h2---2-----0h2---2-----0h2---0-----0-----0-----0-----0--------|
-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0--------|
-----------------------------------0h2---2-----2-----2-----0h2------|
-----------------------------------3-----3-----3-----3-----3--------|

Its just a hammer on, and you can do that thru the whole song on whatever chord you are playing.

I'll put the chords from both guitars together for the first verse and Chorus.
The rhythm guitar (without the capo) will have brackets around the chords like this: [E]
The Melody guitar (Capo on 2) will have regular parenthesis around the chords like this: (D)
