This is my crack at the concluding tune for Transistor. I loved this game and loved the
soundtrack, this song
especially. I feel I've got the base chords all down, though I'm sure there's small
things I missed. By my ear
it sounds good on its own and along with the record.
I went back and forth on whether the F in the main progression sounds better as an F or
F5. The vocal line
tends to land on the 2nd (G) or 6th (D) of the chord, so I'm inclined to think its an F5
on the record, but
playing a normal Fmajor sounded fine too.
NOTE: I found these chords on a ukulele, so your mileage on guitar may vary slightly.

(By my ear this is mostly just inversions on a DM7, but I found playing these chords
replicated the effect
well enough.)
