THE HARD WAY (Mary-Chapin Carpenter) ------------------------------------ (These are the chords for the acoustic (rhythm) guitar; capo at the 2nd fret. The electric guitars play it in D with no capo. Frankly, either way is pretty easy, but I wrote the chords down for the acoustic. The tab at the end is for the electrics.) (It sounds okay to play E7 instead of G#dim7.) (I play C5 as x3x013 and G#dim7 as xx0101 or x20101.) (Each chord is half a measure.)
[Intro] (The high notes are played by one electric guitar, the low notes by another; no capo on the electrics.)
