Chords

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: syphaxe ...so the thing (and the beauty) if this song is that the dude plays it a little different every time (which totally means that you have every right to). And the timing/cadence is a little bit iffy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGyZOGV1_Uc These chords follow the recorded version on the "Roll The Bones" album with the capo on 5th fr (though live versions have the capo elsewhere). Live, sometimes he throws a G between the F & c in the verse. And he also uses an Am E F C progression to get back to the C from the F in the instrumental transitions. ...seriously everytime you play it, its a complete f'n roll of the dice... ...love this song...
