    Prison Bound is easy. It's just open chords. Detune 1/2 step (E flat). G, D, Em, C. That's it. Or, to do it like they do live, either use a capo and use the same chord shapes or move everything up 1 whole step: A, E, F#, D.

    Yup, tune your guitar flat (down one half step), which holds true for pretty much all of their songs. I prefer their live chord progression of A-E-F#-E-D (those are the chord shapes, they will sound a half step lower of course). I also like the sound of using all power chords rather than open chords, it really makes it sound a lot "tighter."

    Check out the acoustic version of Prison Bound. The way Mike changed the strumming is killer.
