previous transcription. several key chords were misplaced. This version
fixes all of these.
The C(9) chord which was previously placed here is actually just a C
chord fingered a bit different. Also in place of these G Chords should
be a Gmaj7. Also some C? turned out to be Fs and such.
C 032013
D x00232
D9 x00230
Dsus x00233
F 133211 (barre the first fret)
Gmaj7 320002 (or an easier one -> 3x0002). I prefer this fingering for
pure simplicity and chord structure. Chords tend to ring
better if you have an open fifth at the root instead of
of a triad. To finger this correctly, simply use your
thumb to mute the A string.
One last note before we get started. In the chorus, the D chord is
jazzed up by doing the following...
