Standard tuning:
When Bazan plays this at house shows, he plays with a capo on the 2nd fret and he starts it off with a
pretty funky chord which an online chord detector recognized as G6(#11), this chord may not sound right to you
at first but go check out his performance of "Both Hands" for KEXP. It's right. Then it goes to good ol' A7.
Other chords to look out for include, but may not be limited to, Asus4, E7sus4, and a D major at the end of
each chorus.
G6 A7 Asus4 E7sus4 D
e|-0---0---------------2---|
B|-2---2---------------3---|
G|-0---0---7-----7-----2---|
D|-0---2---0-----0-----0---|
A|-2---0---0-----0-----x---|
E|-3---x---7-----0-----x---|
[Verse 1]
G6 A7 G6
If I'm not losing sleep, I'm probably over it
Might take a couple weeks for me to decide
Asus4 E7sus4 G6 A7
Didn't think you'd take this long to make up the lost time
Can't help wondering why it still feels like
[Chorus]
G6 A7 G6
Both hands over my eyes
Both hands over my eyes
Both hands over my eyes
G6 A7 D
Both hands over my eyes
(REST)
[Verse 2]
G6 A7 G6
Sometimes twice a week, we make ourselves vulnerable
We get a little peek over enemy lines
Asus4 E7sus4 G6 A7
Even as what weighs on me is bubbling over
I understand I can't sweat what mystery hides
[Chorus]
G6 A7 G6
Both hands over my eyes
Both hands over my eyes
Both hands over my eyes
G6 A7 D
Both hands over my eyes
