Capo: 2 Tuning: E A D G B E
Song: God on my side Artist: World Party Composer: Karl Wallinger Album: Goodbye Jumbo Tabbed by: DJ 6th May 2014 CAPO: 2nd fret (Will then sound in the recorded key of A) For keyboards, bass etc. use the transpose function and set it to +2 to view the chords in the key of A. NOTE: Only the highlighted chords will be transposed, the guitar chord shapes in the legend will remain in G. Chord names and fret positions are relative to the capo: G = xx5433 or 320033 G/B * = x2xxxx A7 = x02020 D/F# = xx4232 or 20023x G/D = xx0xxx Cadd9 = x32030 Em = xx2000 or 022000 C * = x3xxxx A7/E = 0xxxxx Em7/D = xx0000 or 020000 C/B = x2xxxx A7/G = 3xxxxx C = x32010 C/A = x0xxxx A7 * = x0xxxx G/B = x20033 C/E = 0xxxxx D = xx0232 A = x02220 C/G = 3xxxxx A * = x0xxxx G * = 3xxxxx A7sus2 = x02000 A/C# = x4xxxx A/E = xx2xxx Emphasise the bass note of each chord before each strum. The verse progression could alternatively be played as: G G/F# G/E G/D C C/B A | /_/_/ /_/_/ /_/_/ /_/_/ | /_/_/ /_/_/ / / | For the verse end sections I chose an A7sus2, but a smooth A9 chord [x02423] is actually more accurate, so take your pick. For another alternative see the riff tab at the bottom of the page.
