Why doesn’t it show through the whole song? Did this person get too lazy to complete what they started? Please update or revise it to make it easier for players. Also update the screwed up chord please.
These chords are amazing, but could you please make sure they go all the way through? It’s hard to keep scrolling back and forth to keep up with the verses… 🙁
Please show the chords throughout the entire song, its not ideal and makes it harder to use them ?
In the first line it instead goes F Am Csus C. Not two C’s or and F + C. Csus is played like this:
|—|—|-3-|—| (a string)
|-1-|—|—|—| (e string)
|—|—|—|—| (c string)
|—|—|—|—| (g string)
I think the first line would be: F Am F C rather than two Cs. then play that every time
Strumming pattern anyone?
For all of the first C chords on each line, the chord is actually supposed to be Csus4
For the verses, I think it sounds better if you go: F Am F C, instead of too c’s.
Thx for the tab though:)
The spots where the c repeats should be G C instead. The cadence is off on a couple of lines (“pay attention now I’m standing on your porch screaming out”, “the highway signs say we’re close but I don’t read those things anymore”) the F Am G C doesn’t quite apply, it should actually go F Am F Am GC
F Am F
Pay attention now, I’m standing on
Am G C
your porch screaming out
(Sorry for the weird formatting, I’m doing this on my phone)
@Me and @Voldemort are right
F Am Csus(0013) C

Every other line, that is.
In the verses, it should be F Am Csus4 (Which is a C chord, but you also hold down the E string, first fret) C.
