Barley chords by Lizz Wright
Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) In album version there's no guitar part at the intro and first verse - just bass and some drum beat. The same goes for outro. For solo guitar it's irrelevant though. Also, I did this by ear and I'm not sure about that C chord which sounds pretty close, but not ideal. Chords: Dsus2 xx023x (mute last string - sounds better IMO). There's a riff that repeats through the whole song which goes something like this: e|-------------------------| B|--6/8-6------------------| G|--------7----------------| D|----------8-5------------| A|-------------------------| E|-------------------------|
