Chords

from Blood and Chocolate tabbed by [email protected] This is a guitar-based transcription, though some notes played by other instruments may be included so that the lone guitarist can more fully realize the tune as it exists on Blood & Chocolate. Those lone guitarists with dexterity trouble can skip those notes and still "put over" the song in question, but it won't sound as cool. Lower case letters indicate that the preceding chord should be played with the lower case note in the bass (e.g. A g f# = you play an A chord, then you play an A chord with a G in the bass, then an A chord with an F# in the bass) Tricky chords are pictured below the transcription. Correspond to the list, or [email protected]. N.C. he's a fine figure of a man and handsome A / Asus (alternate between the two) too. with his eyes upon the secret places A7 D/ Dsus (alternate between the two) he'd like to undo.
