Capo: 0
Type: Chords
This song isn't too hard to play, but it sounD pretty impressive once you've got it down. I sort of learned to play the guitar on this song. I've written the chorD down according to the way Amy & Emily play the song, as best as I can figure out from watching TV and stuff. If you're not quite up to playing D11's or four-fingered C's yet, you can play the D11's as D(9) or even D, and you can play the C's as x32010, but it won't sound as good. I'd recommend learning the full C (332010) anyway if you don't already know it, because it's a nice chord to know; once you know it, sliding between it and D11 (554030) is really easy. On the full-measure C chorD, hammer-on and pull-off with your middle finger on the D string, so that the chord alternates between C and C(9). The song is actually in A, so capo at the 2nd fret. Here's the approximate tab for the introduction, and the part that you play through the first part of the verses (but when you actually play it, it's hard to just hit the single note at the beginning of each chord; usually you hit two or three strings): G G6/A C9 D D D(9) D E|----3---3-3-3-3-----3---3-3-3-3-|----3---3-3-3-3---2---0---2-2-2-| B|----3---3-3-3-3-----3---3-3-3-3-|----3---3-3-3-3---3---3---3-3-3-| G|----0---0-0-0-0-----0---0-0-0-0-|----0---0-0-0-2---2---2---2-2-2-| D|----0---0-0-0-0-----2---2-2-2-2-|----2---2-2-2-0---0---0---0-0-0-| A|----2---2-2-2-2-0---------------|3-------------------------------| E|3-------------------------------|--------------------------------| ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ .
