Chords for the acoustic version of Ego found on the album Blossom
( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEFL3bjD8n8 )
[Chords]
Cmaj7 : 332400
D7 : 554500
Em7 : 775700
In some parts of the song, the G string is not played,
sometimes it's muted or just flat out not strummed,
you just have to listen closly.
The strumming pattern I've provided is not definite, as it
changes slightly throughout the track. Just have to listen.
During the instrumental, he uses his pinky finger to hammer
on the D string on the same fret that you would have it on the
G string of whichever chord is playing . So for Cmaj7 you
want to hammer on the 4th fret D string, etc.

[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
Missing my miss of roses
Cmaj7 D7
Holding my head high up and
Em7 D7
My head high up and
Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
I know that she is stronger
Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
Cause she can break the silence, break the silence
Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
And all along the way she gives me love
Cmaj7 D7 Em7
Got to take care of her now
D7
Care of her now
Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
So meet me by the sea, you see it's ours
Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
And our place to be somewhere else
[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7 D7 Em7
Gold shimmering sand is making me thinking of her
D7
Thinking of her
Cmaj7 D7
But I am at Half Moon Bay
Em7
It's just too far away
D7
Just too far away
Cmaj7 D7 Em7
And gold shimmering sand is making me thinking of her
D7
Thinking of her
Cmaj7 D7
But I am at Half Moon Bay
Em7
It's just too far away
D7
Just too far away

Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
I'm seeing my miss of roses
Cmaj7 D7
The world is turning slower
Em7 D7
Turning slower
Cmaj7 D7 Em7 D7
And I guess that she's the strongest
Cmaj7 D7
That I have ever seen yet
Em7 D7
Ever seen yet
Cmaj7 D7 Em7
And all along the way she'll need our love
Cmaj7 D7
Got to take care of her now
Em7 D7
Care of her now
