The Innocent chords by Goldfinger

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: EADGBE

Difficulty: Novice

The Innocent - Goldfinger, Good Charlotte, Mest

Song Notes:
Listen for palm mutes and pick scrapes. They are quite evident. If you don't
know how to do a pick scrape correctly you just take your pick and go from the
bridge (tail piece) and scrape your pick, holding it perpendicular to the
strings, to the headstock. Timing is also easy so you should pick right up on
it. Just listen. Easy enough. :)
