3 Doors Down

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Kryptonite"

This has 2 guitars playing together, so it's really hard to work out. I've tried to combine them into one, this TAB is more accurate than any other I've seen.

Intro:

(Play repeat three times)
| ----------------|---------------- |----------------|----------0-----|
| ------3---------|--------------0- |------3---------|------------0---|
|.----4-----4---0-|------0-----2---.|----4-----4---0-|------0-------2-|
|.--4---------4---|----0-----2-----.|--4---------4---|----0-----------|
| 2---------------|--2-----0------- |2---------------|--2-----0-------|
| ----------------|3--------------- |----------------|3---------------|

Verse 1:

Exactly as per the intro.

End of verse 1, and lead-in to verse 3:

| ----------------|3--3-3-0--0-0-0- |
| 3---3-3-2-3-3-3-|0--0-0-2--2-2-2- |
|.4---4-4-4-4-4-4-|0--0-0-2--2-2-2-.|
|.4---4-4-4-4-4-4-|0--0-0-2--2-2-2-.|
| 2---2-2-2-2-2-2-|2--2-2-0--0-0-0- |
| ----------------|3--3-3---------- |

The second guitar (distorted) plays a B5 chord once at the start of those two bars first time round. It's sustained until you go back into the chorus or main verse sequence.

Verse 2:

Except for the 4th bar, this is exactly the same as the intro and verse 1.

|----------------|----------------|----------------|------------0---|
|------3---------|--------------0-|------3---------|--------------0-|
|----4-----4---0-|------0-----2---|----4-----4---0-|------0---------|
|--4---------4---|----0-----2-----|--4---------4---|----0-----2-----|
|2---------------|--2-----0-------|2---------------|--2-----0-------|
|----------------|3---------------|----------------|3---------------|

|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------0-----|
|------3---------|--------------0-|------3---------|------------0---|
|----4-----4---0-|------0-----2---|----4-----4---0-|------0-------2-|
|--4---------4---|----0-----2-----|--4---------4---|----0-----------|
|2---------------|--2-----0-------|2---------------|--2-----0-------|
|----------------|3---------------|----------------|3---------------|

Chorus:

From the lyric "If I go crazy then would you still call me Superman..."

|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|----------------|4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|----------------|

|2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-|2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|2-2-2-2-4-5-4-2-|
|----------------|3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-|----------------|0-0-0-0-2-------|

|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|----------------|4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|----------------|
|4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-|4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|2-2-2-2-4-4-4-4-|
|2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-|2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|2-2-2-2-4-4-4-4-|
|----------------|3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-|----------------|0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2-|

The chords played here use a rhythm of a 1/8th open chord followed by two 1/16th palm muted chords.

Verse 3:

|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------0-----|
|------3---------|--------------0-|------3---------|------------0---|
|----4-----4---0-|------0-----2---|----4-----4---0-|------0-------2-|
|--4---------4---|----0-----2-----|--4---------4---|----2-----------|
|2---------------|--2-----0-------|2---------------|--2-----0-------|
|----------------|3---------------|----------------|0---------------|

|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------0-----|
|------3---------|--------------0-|------3---------|------------0---|
|----4-----4---0-|------0-----2---|----4-----4---0-|------0-------2-|
|--4---------4---|----0-----2-----|--4---------4---|----2-----------|
|2---------------|--2-----0-------|2---------------|--2-----0-------|
|----------------|3---------------|----------------|0---------------|

Solo 1:

| ----------------|----------------|----------------|
| ----------------|----------------|----------------|
|.----------------|----------------|----------------|
|.----------------|----------------|----------------|
| 2--4--5---4-5-4-|/7-5--4---5-4-5-|2--0--2---0-2-0-|
| ----------------|----------------|----------------|

(palm mute)
|----------------|---------------- |
|----------------|---------------- |
|----------------|----------------.|
|----------------|----------------.|
|5-7-5-7-5-7-5-7-|4-5-4-5-4-5-4-5- |
|----------------|---------------- |

Middle section:

Back to the lyric "If I go crazy..." but with much less distortion, play:

| ----------------|0-------3------- | ------2---------|0-------3------- |
| 3---------------|0-0-----0-0----- | --3-----3-------|--2---0---0----- |
|.4---------------|2---2---0---0---.|.----4-----4---0-|----2-------0---.|
|.4---------------|2-------0-------.|.------------4---|--------------0-.|
| 2---------------|0-------2------- | 2---------------|---------------- |
| ----------------|--------3------- | ----------------|---------------- |

The Asus2 and G chords in bar 2 should be raked, and the top string note should be emphasised to get the proper effect. The repeated bars are played as many times as necessary. Then one last chorus and into solo 2 to end.

Solo 2:

|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|2--4--5---4-5-4-|/7-5--4---5-4-5-|2--0--2---0-2-0-|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|

(Palm mute for these 2 bars)
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|5-7-5-7-5-7-5-7-|4-5-4-5-4-5-4-5-|2--4--5---4-5-4-|/9-7--4---5-4-5-|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|4---------------|
|----------------|----------------|----------------|4---------------|
|2--0--2---0-2-0-|5-7-5-7-5-7-5-7-|4-5-4-5-4-5-4-5-|2---------------|
