Chords

from 'Days' (2011) by Courtney/Real Estate [INFO] There's already a tab up for the chords, which I used to use to play along to this song, but being only three chords, I got a bit bored eventually and decided to make this. There are MANY layers of guitar, I will do my best to tab as many as I can hear and label each separately and accurately, in addition to providing rhythm chords beneath the tab.

A nice song, a bit harder to tab than I thought it would be. Considering the layering, there's a high chance of me missing or inaccurately tabbing a bit here and there, but nothing sounds bad in this to me. If there are any obvious mistakes feel free to comment. I hope not. Anyway, this is one of my favorite albums of all time. Have fun. -Andrew. ************************************ | h Hammer-on | / Slide up | \ Slide down | x Dead note ************************************
