Chords with lyrics
"I can't be with you", The Cranberries.
---------------------
From their 2nd album 'No need to argue'
Not sure if this has been done already, but as I was doing the
Cranberries at the moment, I thought someone would like this.
Try to get the Irish accent. It makes it so much nicer ;)

Again, this sounds good on an electric-acoustic, using a Passac or
DI and a bit of reverb - but don't go overboard!
The best way to get the 'muffled' acoustic sound is to cut your
fingernails and use no pick. Use your thumb and index finger on
the strings, quickly raking, and your palm to slightly deaden the
strings.. still, if you find a better way... ;)
Use >5th barres for the chords (A augmentedA == E MajorE @ 5th, E MajorE == A augmentedA @ 7th,
F# minorF#m == A minorAm @ 7th, D MajorD == A augmentedA @ 5th) when it starts getting going.
Open chords sound good at the start, but once the rest of the
band kicks in, the rapid raking of the barres sounds better.
Haven't worked out the electric in the background yet, tho.
Enjoy.
