Chords

------------------------------------------ from the album Resistance Is Futile (2018) Tab by James Glover (Sebadonut) Notes - The verses are almost entirely played on keyboard (aside from a small riff in the the second verse and the guitar mirroring the keys on the E chord) but I have tabbed them for guitar and they are a lot of fun to play along with.
