Song: The City As You Walk Artist: Skyhill Album: Run With the Hunted (2007) Transcribed by: Freeze1186 ([email protected])
Notes:
In the song, there's some bits where it sounds like the G chord is getting a C note added to it, making a Gadd11. You can hear it best in the "Open your eyes" section, but it might run through the whole song. Use your ears for judgement, and play what sounds right to you.
G: 32000x (Fret with middle and ring fingers) Gadd11: 32001x (Just put your first finger down on the C note)
