Chords

My God (feat. Weyes Blood) - The Killers The chord shapes are merely a suggestion. I chose them mainly because they arpeggiate well for the second verse. Another way to play this is by tuning a half step down, in which case the Eb can be played in open position. The UG transpose function can be used if you tune down! Chords note: just before the chorus the bass and synth play a quick progression that I denote as D5-Eb*-D5-Cm, but an alternative choice might be Bb-Eb*-Bb-Cm (or a Bb/D if you can manage!).
