Walk off the Earth is a Canadian indie band formed in Burlington, Ontario. Founded in 2006, the band's first success came from covering the songs of The Gregory Brothers. The video of their cover of Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" featuring The Creepshow's Sarah Blackwood became rapidly popular on YouTube in early 2012, gathering over 33 million views in 2 and a half weeks and received positive responses from both Gotye and his co-singer on the song Kimbra.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Here are the chords for this awesome song by WOTE. Hopefully this is vaguely correct. It's my first tab so please be gentle.
The one concern I have is the Am7/G chord in the verse. I've watched live footage of the band and noticed that Ryan releases his 3rd finger from the Am chord and plays the 3rd fret on the E string (or at least it sounds like it), thus making (I believe), an Am7/G chord. I'm still getting to grips with the lesser known chords, so any assistance would be welcomed. How I've interpreted the chord should be below.
Listen to the song for rhythm and to try and figure out what I mean regarding the chord itself
As I say, I don't think it's perfect, but it may be a start for someone to improve on. Any comments, criticisms and feedback would be most welcome to [email protected]
Enjoy. :)
