Chords

This is simplified to play on stand tuning guitar. See notes at bottom. Note to play along with the original, you need to either lower the playback 1/4 step speed, or tune up 1/4 step (it's not standard pitch and sounds horrible to play along with if you don't compensate).

This is close enough feel for me to original and easy to play in standard tuning. If you want the exact tuning, notes, strings, etc, check the TAB pages. :) ************************************ | h Hammer-on ************************************
