Capo: 3 Tuning: E A D G B E

Open by The Cure (album Wish) The Cure tuned their guitars G-Bb-F-G-Bb-Bb - I did my best to translate "Open" into EADGBe tuning. - It's quite close to their sound, but it's not perfect. Hint: Transpose -3 and Capo 3 gives easy chords. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMHU8brIsSQ |Intro| | * | C5 | F5 | G5 | | * | C5 | Dm | Gm7 | | F | Bb | Gm Fm | Gm Dm | | F | Dm Gm | F | Gm F | | Gm F | Gm F | G F | Gm F | | Gm F | Gm Dm | F | Dm | | Gm F | Gm Dm | F | Dm | | Gm F | Gm F | Gm F | Gm F | | Gm F | Gm F | Gm F | Gm F | [Verse 1]
