The Enemy Is You Chords by Elliott Smith

The Enemy Is You chords by Elliott Smith

Guitar chords with lyrics

the only ’strange’ chord that I could find was this one, which is the second
chord of the verse:

Dm(add B)

5th | 1 | | | 1
    | | | | 2 |
    3 | X 4 | |
    | | | | | |

this basically a D minor bar chord with an added B note on the top fret. If
you can get the A note on the D string to ring more power to you. If you
can’t, just mute it.

The timing is a little quirky, he hits the chord 1/16th before the start of
the bar every other chord change... Its advisable to listen to the track to
get the right feelin’.
Other than that its simple BAR CHORDS all the whole way baby!
