Chords

I’ve tabbed this requested song using footage of Damien Jurado’s performance at this link: You’ll see from his performance how he pulls off and hammers on the first finger of the D chord as he switches between the Dsus4* and the D, and the timing of that. Then it’s a simple run down to the Csus2 and G/B chords and full circle back to the D combo. Note that he mixes a couple of verses around and also adds a couple in his live version, so I’ve reproduced the original studio version here. D: xx0232
Dsus4*: xx0032
Csus2: x30030
G/B: x2003x [Intro] Dsus4* D Dsus4* D Csus2 G/B Csus2 G/B Dsus4* D Dsus4* D Csus2 G/B Csus2 G/B [Verse]
