Chords

Fremont (Acoustic) by Citizen You can listen to the song (and hear the strumming pattern) here: Standard (EADGBe) Key: A minor Guitar Chords: Am7 : X02010 F/C : 132010 C : X32010 G/C : 332010 (Low C is optional) You can also play these using just the power chords or the bar chords of the chords above, but I think the chords above sounds nicer on an acoustic. Although, on the recording I think they just did the power chords because there's an audible slide from F to G in the chorus. Verse: (Am7, F/C, C, G/C)

Am7                                                  F/C
    Such minimal and worthless things I get myself into

      C     G/C       Am7
    I get myself in two

And paragraphs rest angry words onto a landscape

    F/C  C        G/C     Am7
    That sinks me down to a level much lower than that

                         F/C                  C    G/C
    Of an angry kid with loaded words and too many silences

Chorus: (F/C, G/C, Am7)

F/C          G/C                   Am7
    And I am looking back on these past few years

                       F/C          G/C
    I've led myself on to think I'm better than this

Am7
    I can't be better than this

F/C    G/C        Am7
    Say what you wanted to say

F/C           G/C              (Am7...goes into next section...)
    The glory days have worn away

Verse 2: (Am7, G/C, F/C)

Riff starting at "Stranded" (plays along with the chords):
 e|----------|----------|----------|----------|
 B|----------|----------|----------|----------|
 G|-----0----|-----0----|----------|----------|
 D|---2---2--|---2------|-------2--|----------|
 A|-0--------|-0-----0--|---3------|---3------|
 E|----------|----------|-1---1----|----------|

(...Am7)    G/C             F/C
    Stranded, we aren't the hopeless

    Am7     G/C             F/C
    Stranded, we aren't the hopeless

    Am7           G/C             F/C
     We've got it figured out     or so it may seem
