Chords

Attempt to capture chords and intro tab for the way Mike plays this in the video: Note: Many of the G Gsus4 G exchanges appear to come from a combination of the 2 guitar parts because it looks like Mike is staying on the G. If you add the Gsus4 back to the G it seems to match the motion of the line from Mike and Stu together. The final Fmaj7 in the outro repeats and fades. I am still not sure if I am counting this right as I try to tab out what I am playing, but the intro tab below should very closely match what you hear most prominently from Mike with the added suspension coming from Stu's guitar. I have also added a second version of the song at the end to list the chords Stu is playing. [Chords] C x32010 C* x32013 Gsus4 3x0013 G5 3x003x Fsus2 1x301x G 3x0003 Fmaj7 1x3210 Fmaj7sus2 1x3010
