Tuning: E A D G B E
This is intended to be played with open strings ringing out for all or most of the chords (G# is the possible exception, it is disonant when played open, but I think the disonance works with the lyrical content. The standard barre G# is fine if you don't prefer the open version). C#m - x46650 Bsus4 - x24400 Asus2 - x02200 E/G# - 422400 E - 022100 G# - 466500 (alternatively 466544) Am - x02210 [Intro] C#m Bsus4 Asus2 C#m Bsus4 Asus2 [Verse 1]
