Chords

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------                            Gutless by Hole ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From 'Live Through This'. As always, there are two guitars in this one, with Courtney on  rhythm and Eric on lead. I've watched live performances of it and the main riff and  chorus are played two different ways between the both of them. Note: When you play the fourth chord in the main riff (which is an F chord, 1/3/3), you have to upstroke/downstroke really rapidly on the last three strums. Listen to the song and you can hear it pretty easily. The real difficulty with this song is  keeping up with the rapid strumming.
