This song was played in the movie Reality Bites and it was the actor
Ethan Hawke who sang it. I really like this song. But in the movie
he just plays VERSE 1 and then the CHORUS/OUTRO. The first chorus,
which was not played in the movie, has totally different chords
than the CHORUS/OUTRO. Enjoy!
When you're playing the A chord, most of the time
you should play it like this:
A A* A A* A E|--------------------------------------------| B|--2-2---2---3--3--3-2-3-2--2---2---3--3-2---| G|--2-2---2---2--2--2-2-2-2--2---2---2--2-2---| D|--2-2---2---4--4--4-2-4-2--2---2---4--4-2---| A|--0-0---0---0--0--0-0-0-0--0---0---0--0-0---| E|--------------------------------------------|
It's played like that in all the verses and the intro.
The only comfortable way to play this is to use your
index finger to play the A chord, then when you play the
A* you can just hammer on the D and B strings with your
middle and ring finger. Like Keith Richards does.
When you see something like 'D (sus2)' it just means
play the D chord but throw in the Dsus2 a bit. A lot
of times he plays A and then throws in a Asus2 for
instance.
OK, then you should be ready to play the song.
