This Old House - Matt Epp
Matt Epp's official website is at http://www.mattepp.com/. You can hear
this song on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUKc8xfJZnw with a
live version where you can see his playing at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9-yOlpX-O8 (the live version is slightly
different than the CD recording).
Matt keeps his pinky on the 3rd fret of the high-e string (G) throughout the
song for all chords. The C G and Am7 chords are still normal with the
pinky-G, but the F becomes Fadd9. You can play it without the pinky-G and
it still sounds good, but it's also cool the way he plays it.
Standard time.
