The Shore chords by The Wood Brothers
Guitar chords with lyrics
Artist: The Wood Brothers Song: The Shore Transcribed by: J-Heck Notes: There's some really interesting phrasing in this song vocally & musically. The "DD" in the last verse and the finish are two quick strums on D that are held for the remainder of the measure. I definitely recommend practising with the record to get the vocal phrasing just right. Also notice that at the last chorus and coda hold the A chord longer, rather than stepping up to the B.

typically true to studio versions, with noted exceptions.
