Chords

Because some of the chords are inconveniently long to write and very frequent, we shall utilize the following shorthand: Cmaj7/G = C*: 332000

C/G = C**: 332010
D6/9add11/A = D*: 554000

D9add11/A = D**: 554030 Further chords: Bmadd11: x24430

Em*: 022003
Gmaj7: 354433

Em7: 022030 Bm11/F#: 220200 Bm/F#: 224432 Bm(b13): x24032 (use arched index barre) Bsus4: x24400 The strumming pattern is an approximation; I would recommend strumming only from the second verse. [Intro] (start with B note on the B string) C* D* Em G6 C* D* Em Bmadd11 [Verse 1]
