Rihanna - American Oxygen (2015) Chords 19/4-2015 by Jon Malmin ([email protected]) Tuning: Standard E
When playing the F#m/C# to F#m progression, play the F#m/C# as a full chord first and then add a lower F# as the bass note (listen to the recording and you'll understand). The song is best suited for piano, although it can be played on guitar as well. If you want to play it on guitar, I suggest you put a capo on the 2nd fret and use UG:s transpose function to transpose it from B minor to A minor! It will be easier that way. Listen to the song to hear when you're supposed to strike each chord and when you should just let it ring over the lyrics.
