Strumming
Capo: 2
Tuning:
If these chords are too difficult, use the Ultimate Guitar
"simplify chords" button. it works great.
Keep in mind that the time signature changes in this song.
The strum pattern added is only for the 7/8 bars, with each
arrow being an 16th note. For the 5/8 section take off the last
four 16th notes of the pattern. Although, fingerpicking (in my
opinion) sounds the best if you can figure it out.
This chart is written with one chord symbol per measure, but in
the 7/8 sections the chords change in the middle of the bar (on
the 4):
D/A Bm7 D/A D
7/8 | 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
If this only complicates things, try to sound it out.
The D/A D6/A Dmaj7/A D/A Dadd9/A D/A optional progression added
does not change one chord per measure. listen to the song for
these changes.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Gadd9/B 7 5 5 7 8 5
D/A X 0 7 7 7 5
D X 5 7 7 7 5
During the intro on the Bm7, the guitar switches in and out
of playing the 6th, it starts with Bm7.
Bm7 7 X 9 7 10 7
Bm7add6 7 X 9 7 8 7
If you REALLY want to get the intro melody in there, use these
in this order:
D/A X 0 7 7 7 5
D6/A X 0 7 7 7 7
Dmaj7/A X 0 7 7 7 9
D/A X 0 12 11 10 10
Dadd9/A X 0 12 11 10 12
D/A X 0 12 11 10 14
