Chords
Attempt to capture a chord version for the way Mike plays this one in the announcement video
for his May 9, 2021 Wide Eyes Blind Love live stream:
The G in parentheses at the end is the beginning of the following instrumental section.
Chord shapes listed below are what he is playing for the finger picking.
The G* at the end of the song seems to be the only time he plays the high E string.
He uses the same type of triplet pattern as the intro for all the chords throughout the song.
The intro tab is the same for the second instrumental section.
For a complete tab for the album version of the song (very close to this version),
