Chords
~~~~~~
As this version doesn't specify which chord fingerings should be
used, I haven't included a chord chart. If you want to know the
fingerings, see the other posting of this song with specified
chords. N.B. F#major is not written as
F#F# purely to make it
clear that it isn't F#m.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes
~~~~~
1. Learn the song by playing along to the album track.
2. Feel free to use different versions of the same chord or slighlty
different varieties of the same one to colour your music. For
example, I use a
Dsus2Dsus2 to link the
D MajorD and
B minorBm chords in the 4th line
of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th sections.
3. If you don't want to use these linking chords (such as the Dsus2's
all through this CRD, you needn't).
4. If you're new to barre chords, and would rather stick to open ones
you could transpose the tune to the key of
G+G major, which involves
shifting all chords done by a tone:
This version: Transposed to
G+G major:
A augmentedA
G+G
F# minorF#m
E minorEm
D MajorD
C majorC
B minorBm
A minorAm
C#C# &
C#7C#7
B7B7 should be okay
F#major Emajor (just plain
E MajorE)
If you want to do this and have a capo, putting it on the 2nd fret
will get you in tune with the album track.
6.
A augmentedA big thankyou (THANKYOU) to Alan Pulliam for supplying the lyrics
to Long Dead Gone and Backing Out. They made my job a lot easier.
7. Very important this: Have Fun.
