Chords

From the album of the same name. Chords used: C: X32010 Em: 022000 F: 133210 G: 320010 Am: X02210 The picking pattern is relatively simple for the most part. There are a couple of minor variations on the chords used. For example sometimes the intro and going into the verse uses a variation on the G:

e|----------------------------3---|
B|-------1----------1-------------|
G|-----0----0-------0---0---0-----|
D|---2--------0p2---0-----0-------|
A|--------------------------------|
G|-3--------------3---------------|

Sometimes notes are added or taken out, but if you stick to the chord shapes you can't really go wrong. For the verse in general:

        C            Em              F               G
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|
