Chords

This is my first public song deciphering but after studying videos of Matthew Good playing this live I think this is pretty freakin' close. I may in the future do a video explaining the strumming pattern and changes but you should be able to pick it out by ear. Any comments or corrections my email is [email protected] Most variations of his chords involve hammering on the G and B string in the second fret - so add that in where you deem suitable and you should be perfect.

So you're driving, it's rush hour

You sleep walk, a robot out to the street
