Exit Flagger chords by Guided By Voices

Chords with lyrics

Exit Flagger
from the Guided by Voices album Propellor

Tabbed by Michael Davidson

This one's really easy. First of all, here are the chords. (All barre,
but it sounds much better if you don't play the high e string on the
e-shaped ones. Listen to the song; they keep it pretty low.)

A augmentedA - 577655
BB - x2444x
D MajorD - x5777x
DbDb - x4666x
G+G - 355433

The single-note riff (spelled with lowercase) is

A-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2-----------------------------------------------
E-----------------------3-3-3-3---------------------------------------

The main chord RIFF (uppercase) is the same thing, but with barre
chords. (That is, D MajorD DbDb BB G+G)

Then through the solo it's just the RIFF four times,
an A, a G, and the riff eight times.

* Instead of A augmentedA then G, you can play A augmentedA (x0222x), B, Db, D MajorD instead which
 follows the bass line instead of the guitar. (You can play the A augmentedA that
 way anytime, but I think it's easier to slide to the G+G if you go ahead
 and play it on the fifth fret.)
