Chords

[email protected] At times you can hear the three notes of the intro chords plucked in the pattern of low-middle-high-middle. Later, the same up an octave. I've written two ways to play the chords. The first is the easiest, but I saw them live and it looked they played it the second way. easy live F/A: X032XX 587XXX F/Bb: X132XX 687XXX F/C: X332XX 887XXX Csus4: X330XX 885XXX [Intro] F/A F/Bb F/C Csus4
