WATERSHED (Emily Saliers) ------------------------- [Emily fingerpicks most of the song except for the bridge and possibly the last chorus; her guitar has the low E tuned down to D. Amy strums all the chords, and I don't know if her guitar has the low E tuned down.] [Do NOT rely on the chord names in the verse and chorus; refer to the tabla- ture for fingerings. The strummed chords in the bridge are: Bm7(4)=x20230; E7=x20130; C(9)=x32033; G=x20033; A7=x02020; A7sus4=x02030.] [As written, each chord is half a measure, except pairs of chords joined by hyphens are a half-measure _total_.] D D/C# Em7/B Em7/B D D/C# Em7/B Em7/B [intro] D D/C# Em7/B Em7/B D D/C# Em7/B Em7/B Thought ..
