Chords

Found some rough tabulature on this song and decided to work it out as it’s not been anywhere except the viachicago forum. This should be pretty close? Piano intro: e ——0 -——0 B —8— x8 —8— x8 G —11— —11— D —10— —9— If you’re a finger-picker you can alternate thumb, index, middle then ring (on the e) or with the thumb. (I think the brushing sounds better). If you are a piano player, it's F# G then E and B F# G then E. (This riff may change but I generally don't carry it the beginning so... it's all yours to figure out). Chords: CM7 x3200x x35500 8x998x Bm7 x2400x x2403x x2003x x2423x 799777 Am7 x0201x 575555 G 32000x x2000x 355433 D xx0232 x5403x I switch between these different voicings a lot so I figured I'd share them all Do what think sounds best. I also play with a capo on 3, but that just fits my voice better, are for original album tuning. Either way, great song. Hope someone finds this useful.
