Depeche Mode:  Dream On
The Cheap And Easy Approach

I've seen the Paris DVD and yes, it does seem Mart plays with a guitar in flat
tuning.  But isn't it a pain in the ass to do flat tuning?  I sure think so! So
I came up with the Cheap And Easy Apprach... not only easier to tune, but easy
to play too!  Here goes:

Tuning:  Drop D
Capo 1 (tab relative to the capo)

Main Riff:
e|—————————————————
B|—————————————————
G|—————————————————
D|—————3—0———0———0—
A|———0—————3———————
D|—0———————————3—0—

Alternate Riff
e|—————————————————————————————
B|—————————————————————————————
G|—————————————————————————————
D|—————5—————5———————5—————5———
A|———5—————5———5———5—————5———5—
D|—5—————5———————8—————8———————

or, if you're amazingly cheap, you can do this:

e|—————————————————————————————
B|—————————————————————————————
G|—————0—————0———————0—————0———
D|———0—————0———0———0—————0———0—
A|—————————————————————————————
D|—5—————5———————8—————8———————

And so the bridge part would go like this:

e|———————————
B|———————————
G|———————————
D|———————0—3—
A|———0—3—————
D|—5—————————

Isn't that easy?
Here's the format:

On each line of the verse play this:
Main Riff x 3 + Alternate Riff

On the chorus, play this twice:
Alternate Riff + Main Riff x 2

Bridge:  Listen to it, there's alot of those.
For the 2nd guitar in the bridge, who knows?  Play with a slide on the first
two strings is my advice.

To end, I suggest alternating the main riff like this:
e|—————————————————
B|—————————————————
G|—————————————————
D|—————3—0———0—3—0—
A|———0—————3———————
D|—0—————————————0—

Go forth, you lazy ones, and play!
