Chords used: F7/C (F7) 1x3210 F11 1x3230 F7sus2/C (F*) 1x3010 Fadd9 (F9) 1x3213 C (C) x32010 Cadd9 (C9) x32030 Notes to playing it JUST like Blind Pilot: 1) He does this little pinky thing with his F chord. First he'll emphasize the open E the F7, then he'll emphasise the D on the F11, then back to the E string on the F7, and he'll do a sort of melodic fall from the F9-F7-F11-F7. (emphasize the notes, G-E-D-C). great video is found on youtube by searching, Blue Ribbon Vision @ the riverside In fact, in that video he breaks his A string (on purpose!) to avoid hitting that nasty (which I included for the C chords) 2) When strumming verse, he does a weird pull of thing with the 2nd fret on the G but it's VERY brief, don't over do it! The idea is a F7-F*-F7- real quick. 3) When strumming the bridge (Amin chord), he uses pull offs on the 2nd fret of the D G strings. He also plays the f7 chord for only 1 strum! 4) He changes the strumming pattern towards the end (on the chorus section) to a melody involving the D on the B string (3rd fret). I'm too lazy to tab it out, have use your ear. Check out the video, it'll help loads! F7-F*-F7 F7 C C9 C C9 F7 F* F7 C C9 C C9
