Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
“Photograph” by Nickelback.

Tab by Dan the Man.

One of Nickelback’s best ever songs. I couldn’t find any accurate tabs on here - so here
it is. Anyway this is 100% correct. But Chad Kroeger uses bar chords in the video clip;
but I think for the CD he used open chords. The tuning for this song is ½ step down; but
you can play it in normal tuning but it sounds like the CD in ½ step down. That’s D# G# C# F# A# D#
