Chords
Begins with a build up on B: one guitar strums once, the other repeatedly, then it’s
chords: G5 A5 B5. I think you hit the open the open G on all of these chords but its really
and that just doesn’t sound too good an acoustic)
With this riff played over it: I didn't put all the cool electric noisy bits cause it
doesn’t work on acoustic)

'That one dream of hardware stores and checkered floors...'
2 guitars playing basically the same chords, but these probably aren’t the correct
but I can fix that next time I see them live :)
(CHORUS) one guitar holds the chord while one plays the lil' riff. e|--------------------------------------| B|-------------------------7^7----------| G|------------------------------9-7-6---| D|-4--5--7--9-7-4--5--7-----------------| A|-5--5--7--9-7-5--5--7-----------------| E|-2--3--5--7-5-2--3--5-----------------| e|--------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------| G|--------------------------------------| D|-4--5--7--9-7-4--5--7--5--------------| A|-5--5--7--9-7-5--5--7--5--------------| E|-2--3--5--7-5-2--3--5--3--------------|
