Devotion (Live) - Ellie Goulding
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Alex Ryl
E-mail: alex_ryl99@hotmail.com
Tuning: Standard, Capo 3rd fret
So I've tabbed it out how I play it based on her live version. I've put the chord shape to use
above the tab so it should make it easier. After what I call the pre-chorus (so I guess the
chorus), I just strum Am (or improvise with finger-picking),
and that's basically the whole song. For the F it's the Barre chord
shape.Also, she doesn't do the hammer-on's in her live version, hence why I haven't included
them. The pre-chorus is a finger-picking pattern that I have represented on the tab.
Alternatively you can just strum the chords and it sounds really good too.
