Chords

There is a really excellent (Official) Pro Tab for this song, found here (https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/cage-the-elephant/come-a-little-closer-official-2239419) but I'm providing an alternate take for the Chorus as it sounds (to my ears) closer to the album. Playing it live the Official way is extremely dissonant... Hope you find it useful! The Official tab...
