Artist: Elliott Smith Song: Waltz 2 Xo I am transcribing from the album version... Easy Notes: To make it easier to read just use basic chords without the slashes (Am,C,F,G,D7,Dm,B7,E7,G7 etc..) However , spend a little time on these voicings and you will see they are not so complex to play Advanced Notes: I have copied his voicings fairly well but he also will alternate the bass notes to the 5th of the chord often which I did not include ***TUNE DOWN A WHOLESTEP to match the recording*** (DGCFAD) Chords Voicings: Am: X02210 C/G: 3X2010 F: 133211 C/E: 032010 G: 320003 D9/F#: 2X0210 Dm: XX0231 B7sus4: X21200 E7: 020100 Dm/F: XX3231 G7: 320001 G6/B: X20000 Intro: Am (x4) Am C/G F C/E Dm/F C/E G C Am C/G F C/E F C/E G C C/G C C (Bass Walk E G G#) Verse 1:
