Charted by Richard J.M. Fry for bloody fun, that’s who! (Drastic Revisions!
Epiphany, research, and whatnot)
Once more, please consult the *Notes and Notations* section below for any
questions.
*Plenty of interesting chords here. Just to note, this is not tablature, but I am
by far open to corrections on chord figures. If you DO have chord suggestions,
please, let me know in the comments, but please don’t suggest arppegiated chords.*
Redundancy aside, I have nixed the non-capo version. Many of these chord shapes
simply can’t be feasibly emulated on a guitar without a capo. Though, if you want
to see the chords anyways, use the transposition tool on the left hand side and
raise the song four half steps.

*Notes and Notations*
1. The intro: given that there is an arppegiation of D-A-A, that might make you
want to play a D major chord with your pinky on F on the high E string.
Technically, yes, this is how the recording does it, but simply because there is
an octave of the fifth does not inherently make this intro chord major. As such, I
have listed it as a Dm, given that it is shortly followed by such.
3. The G chord I have listed: I am a staunch believer of dropping the low B on the
A string in a G chord. It just muddies the tone to me. Leaving the high B still
present completes the triad while also making a brighter G; that being said, you
can make that high B a high D—cutting out the third of the chord is purely
aesthetic, so don’t feel inclined to follow this if you disagree.
3. Lastly, the E7 might sound like there is an octave D on the B string there, but
this is unnecessary given the lower seventh present in a standard E7 chord
fulfills the seventh necessary for a V7 chord. As to WHY there is an E7 there, it
is a borrowed V7/v chord. Am immediately precedes E and E7, so this negates any
possibility of it being a III7, as a iii-III7 is incredibly uncommon compared to a
V-V7/v. This is just theory babble, so disregard it if you aren’t interested in that.
