Capo: 2 Tuning:
Song: This Town Artist: Niall Horan Year: 2016 Tuning: Standard Capo: 2 This is my first tab! I just got the tabs from watching his live 1 mic, 1 take recording. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNBlfyYHu80 All chords are relevant to the capo. [Chords] G, Em7 Cadd9, D, G* (not official name), Dm/G (not official name) NOTE: He plays a Cadd9 shape but many times in the video, he removes his index finger from the 2nd fret of D string. This doesn't affect sound, but saying it's a Cadd9 is easiest for the tab's sake. Picking D Traditional D shape, pick like this. e|-----------------------| B|----3---3---3----------| G|----2---2---2----------| D|---0---0---0-----------| A|-----------------------| E|-----------------------|
G*Traditional G shape on B and e, play like this: e|-----------------------| B|----3------------------| G|----0------------------| D|-----------------------| A|-----------------------| E|--2--------------------|
Dm/G - Dm shape with your thumb pressing on the 2nd fret, wrap around the neck of the guitar. e:1 B:3 G:2 D:0 A:0 G:2 Pick it like this: e|-----------------------| B|----3------------------| G|----2------------------| D|-----------------------| A|-----------------------| E|--2--------------------| The progression in the prechorus when he says "The words I never got to say the first time around" can be slightly tricky. G and G* are only picked twice. The best way to describe it is to step down with your index and middle fingers so it's like this: "The words I never got to say the first time around" D D G G G* G* Em7 x4 e|----------------------------------------------------| B|----3---3------3---3---3---3----3---3---3---3-------| G|----2---2------0---0---0---0----0---0---0---0-------| D|--0----0--------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------2---2---2---2-------| E|---------------3---3---2---2------------------------| ^ Walk down the E string, using your middle for G and your index finger for G*. [Intro] G The picking pattern is fairly consistent throughout the song. Basically, pick the lowest note followed by the G and B strings as shown below: e|-----------------------| B|----3---3---3----------| G|----0---0---0----------| D|-----------------------| A|-----------------------| E|--3---3---3------------| (Repeat this until Niall begins to sing) [Verse 1]
