The Last Resort – [4/4], Key = E --> G Notes: All of the pieces are here, but you can listen to the recording to make sure you get the timing on everything, strum pattern, etc. In the charts below each measure "| |" counts for 4 beats unless preceded by a time signature change. Repeats indicate how many times to repeat an entire passage. % designation tells how many times to play the preceding measure after that measure has already been played. Example: | A | % x3 | is the equivalent to 4 measures of A, whereas ||: A | B :|| x3 is saying to play 6 measures total | A | B | A | B | A | B | [Verse] ||: E A | B E :|| x3 | E A |[2/4]] B / | E / Esus4 E | [Bridge 1] | Amaj7 / / A6 | E / / Esus4 | Amaj7 / / A6 | E | B7 | E | [Bridge 2] | Amaj7 / / A6 | E / / Esus4 | Amaj7 / / A6 | | G / / Gsus4 | Cmaj7 / / C6 | G / / Gsus4 | Cmaj7 / / C6 | G | D7 | [Piano] | G6 Csus4 | % x6| (Regular G and C work fine) [Verse] ||: G C | D G :|| x3 | G C |[2/4]| D / | G / Gsus4 G | A6: xx2222 Cmaj7: x35453 C6: x35555 G6: 320000 Csus4:x33011 ----------------------------------------------------------------- [Verse 1]
