Chords

Chords transcribed by : Adam Kemmerer http://www.myspace.com/adamkemmerer. David is my biggest influence and one of the most prolific songwriting talents of our time. I believe this transcription is fairly dead on , I might be off on a few minor progessions, but for the most part the chords are as follows. Any changes / corrections are welcome, but be nice about it...just trying to help! All chords relative to Kappo. Fmaj7* - For all Fmaj7 chords in the verse, play a normal Fmaj7 chord (133210) whilst lifting off and hammering on the 2nd fret of the G string - this is essentially an Fsus2 chord. Listen to the recording for the timing! CAPO 5th fret [Intro] C E F x2 [Verse 1]

C               E                             Fmaj7  
  You say ‘well that’s right’, and you should know

       Dm
You’ve been there before

                     Fmaj7
You’ve basked in the glow

       Dm
You’ve stood in the roar

You’ve tasted the snow.
